Ok, now you have me.  I just bought a 1200 egg ( yikes!) Sears wooden incubator and DH is dealing with the cleaning and electrical parts. For my part I am taking LOTS of pictures to document what is happening with it. I have also just switched computers so now I need to figure out how to make my BYC webpage so I can post the pics.

If I had known a few chickens would make the man THAT happy....

I love projects like these!

In my search for BCM's at the beginning of the year I found the Heaven Sent Ranch website.  Debi has a nice write up on the redwood incubators she restored.

I have a Farm Master also. Just fired it up two days ago. It's has held temp since we fired it up, of coarse after we got the temp stable. I love it. Bought it for 175 with a brooder. My only does 200 eggs and I just got an order for 200 chicks.

I used one of these for many years, a 500-egg Brower that looked almost identical to this one. Loved it. An additional note, I was puzzled by the temperature range as well which was about 5 degrees, ran it that way with a new wafer, and concluded that was normal. I hatched hundreds of eggs in it very successfully.
