With this book, you are on your way to build a good working incubator which has a nice outside look. My end conclusion of this book : very well done, clear and detailed, instructions are easy to follow. Nevertheless do not let you keep that from buying this book. Typography and layout can be improved, especially the table of contents should have received more love. If the author reads this Facebook is a very risky source to link because before you know it a link is removed and you get what you experience here. Also Aliexpress is a very good source for these parts. You search at Amazon for "egg turner" or "incubator heating" and you get a lot of incubator parts. It is true the links the author give, are not working. If you intend to build whatever incubator type, even when you want to build your own model as we do, this book is a must have. But that is just personal preference and the location (very hot) the incubator is in. So we have to cool down too in many periods of the year.īased on my own research it is better to place the heaters (whatever you use) on top of the incubator. He is using bulbs, we are using a separate heating room with coolers because our temperature an go up until 39 to 45☌ in summertime. Where I do not agree with the author is the placement of the heating elements. I already have the egg turner the author recommends and it is a very sturdy one. I did a lot of research in the past 2 years, buying other books in the process but found this one the most informative. My problem is that I am not a carpenter and was puzzling with how to make the box surrounding the incubator. I have to be honest, for almost 2 years now I intended to build a completely automated egg incubator in Gaborone (Botswana). This author knows what he is talking about. So am I happy I purchased the book? Short answer, YES. I am sure I can figure out on my own ,(with the information provided ) any of the measurement details I mentioned that are missing. I would most definitely recommend this book to anyone struggling with planning to build their own incubator. The book shows diagram that explains measurements, but seems as if the details offered were not complete, and should've explained more on the spacing below the electronic thermostat, and also, the closing up of this feature. There was also another measurement detail that was lacking, and it was with the outside thermostat electronics. spacing between egg rack, and lock down tray, as well as spacing requirements for adding additional trays, and best spacing from top tray to top of incubator. The only reason I didn't give it a 5 star rating, is I felt it lacked a few specifics when laying out measurement details, i.e. It even supplies links for all mechanical parts of the build (which, by the way, are more affordable than I expected). It was written in simply layman's terms, and well organized. I almost was agreeable to a 5 star rating for this book, and PLEASE, do not get me wrong, THIS BOOK IS VERY HELPFUL.
