cool, very nice. so dumb newbie question - does the heat tape affect the plastic of the water bottles?

Nice and clean cooler..
I made one.. it worked great but it wasn't as clean as yours.

- I am assuming the thermostat should keep the heat tape cool enough to prevent from melting the bottles of water.

The tape won't get that hot on the thermostat.

How many egg tubs does that hold? It looks like you could get 8 in there but I just want to clarify...

[greghall]

8 six qts,or 2 sixteen qts.

oh ok i see, nice. how do you keep oxygen circulating in there? do you just open it everyday for a while or is it enough ventilation from where the electric wires go in? and i'm guessing once you mist it holds humidity super well. just asking because i was planning to make one out of a cooler with aquarium heaters for the water... i was contemplating getting a polystyrene/styrofoam one so i could poke holes in the top or just stick with a plastic one like yours
