Seed germination chamber. Does anyone know how to build one?

Question

I'm looking to build my own seed germination chamber. Does anyone have any ideas how to go about it? Or does it make more sense to buy one and if so, what is a good one, how much are they, and where can I buy one?

Thanks in advance

I just buy one from WalMart (link is Amazon.com, but concept is the same).  It's not expensive and is really easy to use.  Even better, it's reusable.

If you want to make one, I'd guess that a shallow container with a high-ish lid would work well.  You'd also need growing medium of some kind.  I like the Jiffy Pellets for that.  They're compressed so you have to soak them, but they swell up and have netting around them so that the soil medium doesn't get all over everything.  Then you put the seed in it and leave it in the greenhouse.  Depending on the plant, you should have a sprout within a week.
