Converting A Wine Cooler Into An Incubator
I bought this wine cooler from a guy on Craigslist over the weekend for $50.00 and i'm getting ready to start gutting it and converting into an incubator. It actually still works, so it's kind of a shame to have to gut it...

Bottled water does nothing for humidity, it's purpose is to hold temperature when the door is opened. The insulation coupled with the media in your egg boxes is where your humidity comes from.
I just built one of these not too long ago, hit me up if you have any questions.
