Air Powered Spindle

Does anyone have any experience using an air die grinder or similar as a high speed spindle? I need to be able to run up to a 1/4" end mill and will only have air available for power - no electricity! I'll be cutting aluminum slots that are ~1/4" wide, 1" long and 3/8" deep. I'd like to be able to cut 1/8" deep per pass, but could live with less. This will be as a live tool on a lathe - no Y control, so I can't effectively use a smaller end mill with a pocket.
