    GQF 1266 - acrylic door help

    LOL. That's how I ended up with a cabinet hatcher too...ran upon a deal I couldn't pass up. I have the 1266 and apparently it was for emu eggs so it only has 3 trays. It still holds a bunch of duck eggs though I also was thinking about trying to incubate in my hatcher but I haven't tried it...

    GQF 1266 - acrylic door help

    I wondered that myself. I was hoping someone had already done that and could tell me if they were successful. Such as, is there a specific thickness I need? I'm not sure if acrylic comes with or without any coatings and if so, is there a specifc coating I should get or avoid, etc.

    GQF 1266 - acrylic door help

    I've searched eBay and googled but so far all I have been able to find is either the whole incubator or the clear door for the newer models. Anyone know if the doors for the newer models can be made to for the 1266? Or know where I can buy a new or used clear door for the 1266?
