If you want to "tinker" go to the local Goodwill or Salvation Army store and pickup a child's motoroized car or truck. (They will look at you funny just as when you go into Michael's for fly tying things).
After striping down to the motor, gear box and axle; you will have all the parts to build a portable motorized dryer.
I used one wheel to hold a foam wheel and cut off the second wheel. By varying the number of batteries you can slow down or speed up the motor. You can get as fancy as you want with your design.
Mine cost $3.00 and a little time in the workshop..
