How do I want it blowing on the inside

if that was mine without a baffle on it I would place it so that the air blows to the top of the bator and spreads outward, so THAT ITS NOT BLOWING DIRECTLY DOWN ON EGGS but upwards to blow up and then it will flow out to the heating elements.... so place upsidedown with plenty of shims/distance between the lid and fan.

a cover to send the air outward instead of down

turn the fan upside down so its blow air at the top of the lid where its going to be placed keep room between the fan and bator for the air to circulate

it has to go on the top with long screws AND something to shim it out from the top

THIS IS THE LID LIKE THIS!! but air up do the lid not down on eggs!!!




CH see how fire used long screws, you will need yours out more.... I think fire has it the opposite way than I would do it???? ...... try to find long ones

really,good by I will do the best myself

Don't get your bowels in an uproar; just read Fire360's posts from last night about the spacing of the holes, the screw or bolts, and the spacers to hold it away from the lid; you'll be fine.

Face it up towards a the lid though where it blows teward the lid.

yes son!! upward

it will hit the lid and spread outward to those heating elements, BUT LEAVE SPACE BETWEEN THE FAN AND THE LIDDDDDDD
