hmmmmmm lots to think about, thanks!
I'm leaning towards a Jumbuck Rondo. It's a small rotisserie at Bunnings!
A bit of modification and if I could work out how to attach a chuck to the spinning shaft

Hot melt glue or double sided tape should work out of the chuck of course.

How long does it have to run for? For the price of a Jacobs chuck you could almost but a 12V Ozito drill skin and hook it up to a 12V power source (a car battery?) and use a cable tie to set the speed. I did something similar to make a seed spreader that trails along behind a ride-on mower. Those Ozito tools are ridiculously cheap for what they are.

What sort of load and what RPM? Fitting a Jacobs chuck to a rotisserie motor could be an option if you can find a cheap chuck to adapt. Then you would need to support the outside end of the rotating shaft. If it all fails you can still use it in your own BBQ and it won't be a financial loss. You could become the new BBQ hero of the household!

Don't they have a "click and collect" option on their web page? Here in Port Macquarie, if they haven't got it or can't get it from the warehouse they will order it from another store via the "special orders" desk. Very strange.

They have a full stock now and I picked one up on the wknd.
I've done some conversion which really wasn't that much and I'll let you all know how it goes once I do a bowl up and have it running for an hour or two.
