My Brother of Frankenstein
My Brother of Frankenstein
Well here's a shot of my chamber aka (Brother of Frankenstein)
What you don't see is the heating pad and De-humdifier inside unit.
Two INKBIRD CONTROLLERS (1) for temperatures and (1) for Humdity
The Inkbird left controls Refrigerator & Heating Pad. set @ 48*F
Inkbird right controls Humidifier & De-Humidifier set @ 80%
Oh I also have a mini computer fan inside on a timer that circulates air for 1 minute every 6 hours.

Drier vents, double layer of bug screen on inside and outside of exhaust and intake for a total of 4 layers per vent. Exhaust fan on automatic timer, runs for 10 minutes, twice a day. I leave for 3-4 day hunting trips regularly, and not having to worry about my curing chanber while I`m gone is HUGE. So I`ve built mine to be as self reliant as possible.

Yeah those coolers for free are almost nonexistent, I'm forever checking Craig's List, who knows may I will get lucky and get one at a steal.
I have to make a confession, about a year and a half ago I sold a nice running commercial grade "FREEZER" to a friend.
Now here getting into chamber making and I am kicking myself in the butt for getting rid of that baby, it was big in size, a perfect unit with lots of room.
What a dummy I am (for lack of a better word)

Next time you are at a local grocery store, or corner market / liquor store and see a refrigerator repair guy working on the stores commercial fridge, start up a conversation with him and tell him what your looking for. They usually know where you can find one. Finding a commercial fridge in great running condition is tough though. They are used hard with very little maintenance. I purchased mine very cheap, but it had a funny noise coming from compressor every time it turned on, although cooled quickly and worked great. I did not want to chance losing a big batch of meat due to a compressor failure due to 95% or my dry sausages are wild meat of some sort and not easily replaced. So I chose to spend the money, and purchased a new compressor and receiver/drier. The fridge now runs brand new and I don`t have to worry about it, although not a cheap repair
I can only imagine the repair costs.
You just set off a little light bulb in my head
I have an old friend who is a refrigerator repair man, for commercial establishments.
My mind is shot these, I do the dumbest things, like not thinking.
Oh wow I'm liking this using your brain thing, just another idea.
My son is a police officer, maybe I can tell him to keep his eyes open and/or if he knows someone, he can use his police influences and get me something cheap.
