    Cheapest to make it yourself out of a camping cooler or the like. I'm doing the same for about the same number of clutches. :)

    Use an old fridge or wine cooler, doesn't have to be with a glass door; here's mine:

    nice matti, thats awesome. i love that it has a glass door, when we make/get ours I think we would go that route too. You can peek in without disturbing

    Thx, just a small redbull/coca-cola fridge; remove the cooling elements, add a heat mat and a pulse prop. thermostate.
    A small fan on low rpm give the same under/upper temperature.

    Probably in the middle(left), still testing, but because it's a small fridge a small air flow gives good results.
