I would love to see a picture of the Candler if you have one.
Sure thing.
Started with an Oatmeal canister spray painted black.
Add a ceramic light fixture mounted on a plywood disk, attached to an old Christmas village power cord. (fixture is $1.47 at Home Depot). Install a 120 watt CFL for high light, low heat.
Assemble the pieces. Note- I pulled the cord through a little hole in the bottom of the canister before attaching to the fixture base.
Then cut a hole in the lid, add an egg, turn out the lights, turn on your candler.
I am working on a little brooder project next using an old shipping crate from work.
