    A very nice build there Kris, I love the addition of the candler at the side. The wood from those old sleepers, wow, that jarrah looks so good when waxed up. Looking forward to seeing the results of your hard labour when they hatch.

    Also, it’s so good seeing you use all the things you’ve struggled to build and make. The workshop the workbench the power for the tools all there by skill and sweat - now there is scope for real craftsmanship on a smaller scale.

  • @samvalentine3206
    @samvalentine3206 4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

    Wow - this is absolutely incredible! It's apparent how much effort you put into this - and to get the material from railroad sleeper ties. Great use - and lovely wood grain and patina with the oil. Great strong joints. You must have your reasons, but PLEASE wear eye protection. As to the color, I like #2. Thanks for sharing this heirloom creation! Perfect for a small flock! Right on!

  • @dirtwizard5647
    @dirtwizard5647 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I use to raise EMU . They take 59 days to hatch and in n.c. you have to remove humidity from the air too much for them. No matter how bad you want to help a bird hatch, DO NOT! Theirs nothing sadder than the bird tearing the umbilical cord and dying in your hands! Theirs a reason it won't hatch. I have helped several , most all didn't end well, a few did but...I had a contract in Oklahoma, I was air mailing baby emu from n.c. to o.k. overnight with no problems.i have also raised about everything that flies crawls or hops.
    I paid 600 us for my incubator and I use to joke around that I could hatch a rock
    Very nice high quality work sir!

    Go Kris. Excellent craftsmanship. I’m recommending your videos as inspiration for people out there who are confused with life and meaning. I really, really, really mean that. Fantastic incubator by the way. Your attitude to life seemingly creates abundance and treasure of the heart. Unstoppable. Personally, we don’t watch much tv, but I encourage my three boys, Hugh 9, Lucas 7 and Will 6, to tune into your channel. You may not know it, but I reckon you’re one of the best teachers out there for real living. We live off the grid in Australia. At the moment I’m fencing and getting some metal work stuff happening. Thanks for your videos. They are a great source of motivation. Kind Regards, Rohan

  • @ChuckUnderFire
    @ChuckUnderFire 4 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    I sort of made a very similar design at a larger scale for my beer fermentation cellar. It’s a large sealed box with the temp control system mounted to the side. I always regretted not making the overall chamber just a touch bigger to allow the control system to fit with the overall size of the box, instead of being a smaller box on the side that sort of sticks out. Absolutely loved the hinge concept though. Brilliant.

  • @ssultan4692
    @ssultan4692 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Excellent craftsmanship, but...
    The important thing in incubators is the percentage of hatching.
    The shape is important, but not the most important as the percentage of hatching.
    There are many basic technical factors that you did not consider (fatal errors) such as ventilation, thermal dynamic stability, etc...
    Though the most important thing is that you incubate and publish the results.
    Thanks for the excellent effort.

    Finished watching now... beautiful...I want this masterpiece! (Still wish it had the egg shaped window tho...lol)
    Color #2 btw...
