Not me my friend, I have never bid on a oven off ebay, I am kinda lucky, Family and friends look out for me, and when they find one they snag it for me, small price I guess for them to keep fresh roaster coffee going there way. I think I am truly blessed, things comes back to me 10 fold. Good luck and if you need anything regarding parts for this kinda roasting let me know.

Hey Sea ... where did you get your motor from?

Does that say 240 watts on it? Where do you live?

Nice job on the teflon!

Found it on ebay it's 14 watts and it really has allot of torq, Test run it yesterday runs sweet. Found one of them little wall plug transformer rated at 100 watts for $10.00 bucks and the motor cost $20.00. This solved all my issues with slow RPMs and it mounted fairly easy after I figured it out. Took 4 each 1/2 stand offs that found at Lowes and 4 each 8-32 screws. Let me know if I can be of any help.

I looked at 120 volt 50 rpms they were running from $85 to $185, the 220 14 watt  motors are cheap and the Europe conversion voltage transformer worked perfect, they are small and good for 100 watts, higher voltage better torq, I will solder the motor on to the original power supply connection point and use the original cord. Right now I have every thing tempt for testing. The motor has a 7MM shaft, easy to make a coupling and set screw to secure the motor. better then them dam hex drive on original drive motor. I have went threw several motors trying to find the right motor that would work with enough torq to run smothly. I am sure this is the fix for all of our drive motor issues. Rich

The transformer ran $10.00 off ebay, 110 to 220 volts ac. that should be fine to cover inductive kick for a 14 watt motor.

With all those modifications, Kosmo's design is probably worth checking out.

I to have been Building a roaster on the basic Kosmo's design for the last 8 months hope to get back on it soon . The last 3 months I have been remodeling my shop. Insulation, drywall, rewire, the only thing left to do is the base boards, and painting the floor. Been a pain moving my 2 Kilo roaster in and out to roast. I don't roast commercially just for family and friends around a 100 lbs a month. should get my money back for the 2 Kilo roaster in another 6 months

It's certainly cheap enough. If you purchase it let us know how it works.
