My first bator was bimetal. My next is going to be a digital, ITC 1000F, in a Dorm size refrigerator with a manual turner.

I want to try this and use my hova bator egg turners in it. I think it will work but I'm not sure. The turner is 15 by15.. I don't have the cooler yet but I saw that the inside is 15 at it's width. Has anyone made this cooler on its end, using egg turners?

No but I thought of that when I was making it, I never tried to see if one fit well enough to create shelves. I made the cooler to be simple and cheap at the time, and I am always home so turning is never an issue with a cell phone alarm ap

I love this!!! Hubby and I almost used my ice chest, but I have an odd attachment to it. It was my best friend, rode shotgun strapped in the seatbelt next to me for years when I drove trucks hauling grain. The one you and your hubby did came out great!!! May have to rethink lining the bators I have........LOL Good job!!!!
