Can you take a pic of what you have set up so far and post it?

4'x4'x4' is prett large? How many clutches are you planning on rearing?

If I were you, I would buy a high quality controller, either Herp Stat or Helix and then use 11" FlexWatt.

Here is a picture of one I made from an Omaha Steak Cooler, a Herp Stat controller and the guts from a Havobator.

I got the Omaha Steak Cooler for free. I only used the Havobator heat element cause I already had it and the Herp Stat was $120. The thermostat is a nice one I got when my work was throwing out a thermal oven, but you can get one for $30 a Radio Snack or use a glass one for $3.

I have a clutch of eggs in it now and it holds 90 degrees plus/minus .3 degrees or less solid since about April. This one is so accurate I went with 90 degrees instead of 89 like past years because it fluctuates so little.

Let me know and I can help you...

p.s. Also, the incubator shown can accomodate 3-6 clutches depending on size and it isnt that big?
