Older incubator American Lincoln

[Farmingfannie]

Ok y’all I have a dilemma and project in front of me. I have a older all wooden American Lincoln incubator. Last time my dad used it (many years ago) he remembered it just needed a wafer (excuse me if I’m off on exact terms or so) it’s old I cannot find info on this gem at all. I want to fix it and use it just like I remember from my childhood we hatched tons of chicks at once perfectly with this. Now he isn’t in good health at all and I’m determined to get it going ASAP. If anyone has finally figured out anything on these incubators please message me. Or if you could give me an idea of what parts may work or any ideas etc...

Hi, welcome to BYC!

You can get a wafer thermostat and other parts (like heating elements) here...

Other than maybe a fan or turner (optional) or thermometer/hygrometer (not optional but auxiliary is acceptable) , can't think of any more parts.

Happy hatching!

How did you make out with the incubator? How large is it. I’ve got one that’s big and the temp is controlled by mercury switches.
