1. How to make one: Buy a larger clear storage container. They are available from most stores. Then buy a large heating light (maybe even 2) and attach it to the lid. Next puncture several holes in the lid. Then you can put water and hay in it. I suggest a blanket as well :) If you want to buy one your local farmer or pet shop will probably have on for over $50.
2. I would add a thermometer to the other responder's answer, and if you have a lamp dimmer that you can set and lock down, it will help you adjust the temperature. BTW, if you are trying to search for DIY plans online, it's spelled "incubator", and you might want to try the keywords "egg" and "hatching" along with it, as in: "do it yourself" "egg hatching" incubator (with quotes as shown).
3. Go to some bird sites and do a goggle.com search for them. Ebay too.
