These are plans to help you build your own egg candler. An egg candler is a device used for testing eggs. Candling eggs is a method of testing eggs while they are incubating to determine if they are viable or not. "Viable" means that the egg is fertilized and an embryo is able to develop and hatch. Today most egg candling is done using a light bulb (either LED or incandescent bulb) to provide a light source and the device channels the light into the egg so you can determine if the egg is developing into a chick. The term "candling eggs" comes from the process used before electric bulbs were used. It was common to use a candle as the light source for testing eggs and put the candle in a box or container of some kind, then cut a hole large enough to put the egg onto but NOT large enough for the egg to fall through. Do this in a dark room and the light from the egg candler will shine through the egg and you can determine if the egg is developing. I will mail you hard copies on 8 1/2 X 11 paper. All plans are designed by Ben Stone. Ben is a retired Engineer in Canada. Ben also drafts these himself using the latest AutoCAD software to ensure accuracy. He studied Engineering back in the early 1980's. After over 30 years in the Construction industry he developed a passion for building cool items around his farm and cabin. These are great DIY projects. With a little skill anybody can Do It Yourself. Ben is always a email away if you have any questions while building one of his projects. He is adding new plans all the time.
