I got me a free 3x3x3 stainless steel comercial grade, restaraunt style freezer lol. Anyway. I want to make a really good incubator for next year. Jeremy seems to be the homaid incubator guy so...Ill probably bug him in Daytona.......(Jeremy you cant run from me because you dont know what I look like :) ) LOL Anyway, I need like a fan...and were should I put it in the bottom? I have a heater element for a incubator that I can put in there...or heat tape wich would be better? I willl be using a herpstat for therrmometer.
Im excited I have been using a lobster box from wal mart lol!

I would use heat tape. The herpstat is a great choice. I know nothing about fans for that size incubator, 3x3x3 is bigger than I work with but fans can cause overheating and dry out if they are used on too small of an interior surface. Jeremy will have to help you out with the fan use or not.
