Find a suitable-size/torque "400 Hz. 3-phase motor". Re-do the "output end" with a suitable precision angular-contact ball-bearing rated for 30,000 RPM, and install a tiny collet-chuck. This takes some machining skill and experience. Wire up a 400 Hz inverter. This will require either a LUCKY source of the needed transformer, or the ability to "roll your own" for the specific application. The 400 Hz. "instrument motor" I found at my local "surplus outlet" is a quasi-3-phase design which requires 400 Hz. single-phase plus a specific capacitor/resistor to provide a "third leg". A one-of-a-kind application, but it works! Spins 24000 RPM and drills FR-4 nicely. **************Inauguration '09: Get complete coverage from the nation's capital.(http://www.aol.com?ncid=emlcntaolcom00000027) [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
