1/8 Spindle - Thanks!!!

Thanks guys... based on your replies I've decided to buy one of the
Foredom 1/4 HP flex-shaft spindles with a 1" diameter body. It
should work fine and I think my spindle has a 1.25" hole all the way
up. Now... anyone got any ideas how I can reach up 8' to feed the
cable through the top of the spindle and hang the motor from the
rafters? Its never been a problem as I have a quick change system
and don't use a drawbar.... Oh well...

Thanks all,
Roger
