Hi,
I am new to birds and I started with a few quail about 3 months ago. I am in the process of making my own wood incubator but despite all the research and browsing, I get stuck when it comes to the egg turners. I would like to create my own but I am not very good with mechanical things so I am trying to avoid anything with too many steps. I am trying to create a simple egg turner, something similar to this:

Ideally, the motor and the tray would be a bit closer as my box is not that big. I have seen amazing designs here and online, but some are more complex and I would like to keep it as simple as possible considering my limited manual skills.

Right now I have this motor that I bought on ebay:

My incubator will be 19 x 19 x 27.

Any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated.
Thank you very much.
Julio
