Motor for case trimmer

[marchboom]

I have several UGLY case trimmers that I usually use attached to a variable speed drill motor. However, I would like to use a dedicated motor where I can use a coupler to attach the trimmer. Is there anyone who can recommend a motor for this trimmer?

Thanks.

I got an electric motor from Harbor Freight a few years ago to use with the Giruard tri-way, spins it pretty fast tho.

I use a Harbor Freight 3/8" drill with an Amazon 3/8 chuck that will open up to 1/2." It is fixed to a small piece of plywood with a screw device to push down the trigger to adjust the speed.

Pick up a router speed control ,you can slow the motor speed down with it.

the set up trims good, but what speed control do you recommend?

Any decent one will work.

I bought a cheap china grinder online that turns at 1750 RPM's. I got a coupler that the shaft of Giraud tri-way trimmers fit into and ....... for under $100 I have a powered trimmer. May not look fancy but it trims fancy.
