I'm not sure that drilling a hole in a fridge is a good idea.

I know that if you drill a hole in it then it breaks down when its doing the cold thing so I'd assume it would doing the warm thing.

Not that insane really...lots of people use fridges and freezers as incubators...

If it doesn't have a heating option you just stick some heat cable or heat mats in...on a thermostat and hey presto.

It's just a chamber after all...
