Large Incubator design, seek comment

Posting on behalf of a foaf that has requirements for a large incubator: -6 grow trays of 15"x20"x5" need incubation (possibly bus bins found in restaurant). -Individual TnT impractical and costly.
Idea toyed with: -Rigid(Styrofoam) insulation sheets that measure 4'x8'x2" -Cut into a large cooler about 35"Lx24"Wx20"H -Fitted top of same material -Heated by either 2 heat mats covered with sheets to diffuse direct heat, controlled by a soil heat mat controller. or A fish tank heater in a large glass jar with the top cover with foil placed in center. -Cover 'cooler' with blanket or sheet. -Grow trays stacked 3 high, with pieces of wood or bars in between each layer.
Incubator will be used to incubate jars at times and hay or similar substrates, may increase size to accommodate both jars and trays at times.
comments and suggestions please
Have a safe journey through life, Chef

martha martha martha... or a dead frig like agar suggests. Man, to tell you the truth I'm thinking about finding one of those. It just looks cool as hell and it's absolutely perfect for the size of my grow.

A foaf does not have the space for a fridge.
Martha has interested them, but designing a different fruiting chamber. I will post idea later. It is a cross between TiT and Martha, you may see where it is going. Either way do you think this idea would work?
I cannot find a tek for second heating idea with the fish tank heater and jar. Is how I described it the whole tek?
