Has anyone seen a HUKY 300?

Here is the precursor to the 500J and 500T that most of us are familiar with

I'd love a 300. I just asked Kuanho Li for a smaller drum he said no unless I got an order of 40 drums together.

Only using the Huky for samples these days and would love to do 100g charges with an accurate BT

SusanJoM:
Keep an eye out for Hank's posts about this new Bella Taiwan roaster:

I also am keeping my eyes open for a gas roaster with a smaller sweet spot than our HUKY 500.


Do you think there is any difference between the 300 drum and the 500 drum other than the additional 'fins' inside the 500?  If not, maybe you could have your drum de-finned ????   (I do think I remember Hank saying that the original 300 design was adapted to the larger charge by the addition of the extra fins....)   

Interesting quest....

I've been thinking and reading about effectively having a 150gm charge weight.  Seems to me you could move the BT location to make it more effective for a small charge.  Move it farther towards the outside -- at about 5:30 on the clock -- just above the top of the door.

This thing is great if you want a single sample, it's like taking a traditional Burns sample roaster and deconstructing it into one individual drum. I feel like those of us who want to spend less money on sample batches in a commercial setting could see this as a good venture.
