Not sure anyone even makes one. You may need to go with a dremel or a die grinder.

The only drill motor that will turn up that fast is pneumatic.

Tyler, I have a dremel and drill if you need to borrow one... I can part with them for a few weeks if that works.

They supposedly make one, all the books ive read say the one most important item is a high speed drill 10,000 rpm. Im looking to use it for drilling holes in logs. They also mentioned converting an angle grinder to drill , but not how to do it. I searched online and did not see any other then one made from an auto blower. I have a hand drill , but its not very good. Thanks for the offer F18, I already have a dremel and a drill though, was looking for the high speed. Ill send one of the spawn providers an email , maybe they know.

Mac , would a die grinder take drill bits and hold up to drilling 5000 holes into white oak logs?

What Dia. Drill do you plan on using?

7/16 or 12mm. I also found an adapter for an angle grinder that Fits on a 5/8-11 spindle. Anyone have an angle grinder they wanna sell???

I don't know what books you're reading but drilling a 7/16" hole in white oak at 10,000 rpm will not be very productive in my opinion, it will just heat the bit up needlessly and most likely dull it unless you are the hulk or something and can go like hell.
A nice heavy duty Milwaukee holeshooter drill or Magnum with the side handle would drill holes just fine in white oak, no need for 8,000 rpm.
I've drilled thousands of holes, believe me.

How deep are you drilling those holes?

This is what all the books and literature online have said. I found out that these drills are special japanese %$%$%$%$ake drills, so maybe thats why im having a hard time finding them. The guy said its so much faster/easier with high speed, you just touch the log and its done. The holes are just an inch or 2 , but i need to do like 5000 holes! I found a high speed bit and a adapter for an angle grinder. Just looking for a used angle grinder now.
