Built an incubator, got the eggs, set 6/22

I have been working on my first homemade incubator this past week. I have looked through the many designs here for ideas and hopefully this will work! I am trying to get the temperature stabilized more, it seems to range between 96.9 - 101.3. I just moved my thermostat closer to the light with the back facing it, so hopefully that will help. I do have a pc fan to help with circulation. My husband will be bringing home eggs from a co-worker some day this week for me to hatch. I think most will be crosses but I don't care at this point, I just want to hatch something!

Here is a top view of it.

I don't see how I will last 21 days, I keep running to the basement to make sure the temp stays stable and everything looks good. I must go down there every 10 minutes,

I wanted to keep the incubator on the dining room table but the air conditioner is in the window there so that wouldn't be good so I decided to put it in the basement where the temp is lower but stable.
