This website should sort you a brilliant Incubator and in some cases will cost you nothing apart from the heat mat and controller.

I made a similar thing a while back for duck eggs.

The fridge/freezer incubator ideas are very good due to the insulation on them, but are massive to store and harder to get rid of if you ever want to.

I considered that, as the heat that comes from the element of the freezer would make lovely warming for the incubator.
However the one I used made it impossible because both the fridge and freezer ran off the same cooling system, it would've meant depressurising the cooling system to re-route the pipes, then re-pressurising.

It's not easy to get the cooling system for fridge/freezers pressurised again.
