Sure would be nice to have a rotary tool add-on...

1. That holds the rotary tool stationary.

2. Slowly and steadily moves or spins the work into the rotary tool cut off
wheel (or other attachment).


I'd use a surface grinder and my Newbould Grindit:

It's the kind of expensive tool that no one in this group can really appreciate. Mine has paid for itself many times over with side jobs I've done with it.

Hey, that's a great suggestion, Jon. John is lacking a $500 hobby
lathe that would easily do the job, and you recommend a $5,000 spin
fixture. Great thinking!
