I don't agree. Runout and bit retention could be problems with a cheap
3-jaw chuck. A collet holder would be a much better solution - but you
won't find routing with the spindle speed limited to sawblade RPMs
very satisfying.

If you really want/need to do routing operations, you'll almost
certainly get better results with an inexpensive router. Even for only
occasional use, it'd be worth the money spent for the router.
