Does it matter if it lines up with the main spindle if it lines up
with the work piece?

I don't suppose a wobbler in a router is a very good idea but when
considering this problem pointlessly (I don't have a router or a big
mill) some time ago I wondered about a third motor that could be
engaged to turn the router spindle at a slow speed for wobbling.
Perhaps a removable belt or friction drive?

Of no help I suppose but I tried :)
