I got one for Christmas and the metal part at the front gets hot
awfully fast just running it at idle without even stressing it. In
less than a minute it's uncomfortably hot, but not so hot that I can't
hold it. Are they all like this or did I get one with a problem? It
doesn't sound unusally noisy, and the parts breakdown shows it having
ball bearing, not sleeves.

Use an in-line oiler full of trany fluid set pretty high. Messy, but will
last a long time.
