The best part about this thing is just to wipe it out when your done using it. Cleanup takes 3 minutes

Absolutely! And like you said alreadycost of materials was nothing compared to buying one out of the catalog. The motor I used was from a industrial ceiling fan.

Chris go to any harware store like ace or Aubochons and bring the motor with you.  Your looking for a reducer which is basically a steel sleeve with two allen set screws on each end.  Make sure it's somewhat balaced on the shaft or you will end up with some major vibrations.  Good luck.
