    Future Incubator - I got lucky...

    So after about 6 months of stopping at appliance stores, garage sales and any where else I thought I might be able to find a glass front fridge to use for a DIY incubator I hit the motherload.

    I found a LG Wine Cooler (GC-W81BXG) that was shipped with a faulty compressor that never got repaired. The person at the appliance store asked for $100, a very fair price in my mind. The fridge was still in the factory packaging and the LED lighting system is fully operational, all shelving is removable and on heavy duty casters.

    At work right now so I don't have a photo, but here is the unit from the LG website in Australia (guess this was discontinued in US/Canada). Looking forward to researching the best ways to get it rigged up with heat tape, fans, thermostat etc. If anyone can recommend a good tutorial or some suggwestions as to hwat fans to use and how to place them that would be great, any and all information is welcome.

    Will open a seperate DIY thread once I get this bad boy operational.

    Was excited to share!
