Maybe some wood router would do. I have one like this:

Only problems are limited speed range (11000-27000 rpm) and noise.

I'm planning to use the proxxon BFW 40/E. It's a 250 Watt, 300 - 6k rpm motor. It comes with a speed controller and 6 collets and it's very quit.

I am using a GMC rotary tool. The great thing about it is, it's like a Dremmel, cost me AUS$40.00 and has a 2 year waranty. My first unit had a dicky speed regulator, the guys at the store swaped it out and I was off again the next night.
