Alright boys just got back from the store and here is everything I picked up.
(12)Regular mouth canning jars 1/2 Pint (6)Wide mouth canning jars 1/2 Pint 100% Organic Rye Flour (couldn't find brf) Measuring cups Humidity & temperature reader 12" Fluorescent light Disinfecting wipes Lysol hydrogen peroxide

Perlite & Vermiculite

(unf) Fruiting chamber

16-Qt Pressure cooker

Incubator

Also I found this heating blanket it should help control the temp for fruiting chamber/incubator 
I still need to pickup some latex gloves, a type of humidifier, and possibly some gypsum. Thoughts??

No need for a humidifier, unless your ambient RH is less than 30%, then just humidify the room.
No need for gypsum really, unless you plan on spawning the cakes to a bulk substrate.
No need for the heating blanket or incubator really, unless your temps are super cold.
Build a SGFC for best results with your cakes.

Also, you want 6500K lighting on a 12/12 schedule, so a timer and the right spectrum light would help a lot.
Might also want to get some 70% alcohol.

Sorry to say this, but those still aren't the right jars. The ones on the left are tall and narrow-mouth, and the ones on the right have a shoulder.
The ones you want are Kerr branded, not Ball branded: http://www.freshpreservingstore.com/kerr-half-pint-8-oz-wide-mouth-jars-set-of-12/shop/383255/
I'd also advise you not to use an electric blanket for incubation. It's too easy to dry out your substrate. If you're dead-set on incubation (which really isn't necessary for most people), look up FrankHorrigan's tub-in-tub tek.
And don't worry about a humidifier. You don't need one with a shotgun fruiting chamber. That cheesy humidity/temperature monitor you got might not show high humidity in the chamber, but that's because those aren't the conditions it's designed to monitor.

How would I go about humidifying the room? and you're saying the perlite will humidify the FC just fine? I also do have 70% alcohol

You're gonna need another bag of Perlite. I had one bag and had to go back and get another so I could get around 4".

You don't need to humidify the room. If you have a correctly built SGFC and enough Perlite your fruiting chamber will keep up the humidity by itself.

The ones on the left may not be ideal but they should still work right?

You don't need to humidify the room. If you have a correctly built SGFC and enough Perlite your fruiting chamber will keep up the humidity by itself.
Some people might need to if they live in a really dry climate like a desert because the perlite will dry out way too fast. Which is why hacker stated if it's 30% humidity or less.
