LOL that was me! It works great, I just use a screwdriver to turn side to side from the outside. Very easy to make. I have pictures of my homemade incubator that cost less than 40.00, and actually was able to make a 2nd one with left over stuff from my first.
Good Luck

A great container is a very large Styrofoam box I got from my Doctors office. They receive drug shipments in them. Mine is about 2'x2'x2'. It is 2" thick, very dense Styrofoam. It is large enough for a Little Giant Egg Turner ( I won at a Chinese auction) to fit in with extra room on the side. I haven't assembled it yet because I have 11 broody hens at the moment (for the last 3 months, at least 5, year old Silkies and Cochins)

Here is the link where he shows you how to drill your thermostat for 0 fluctuation. Read the whole post. The first part didn't work.
