that's an awesome idea... but lowering the current on a variable switch has to be damaging to a motor designed to run at a set speed, wouldn't it? i know if u press the trigger an a cordless drill just enough to hear the motor it heats up about 10 times as fast. that's kind of a bad example though, cordless drills are variable speed engines...
if u decide not to go this route, i would suggest variable as well.... keep in mind that a dremel is one heck of a versatile tool.... by old neighbor rigged one up to a jig with servos, and made a slow, but efficient CNC machine... think about it this way.... that drawer that keeps sticking, you really want to shave a little wood off at 3500rpm? it may cost more, but i feel its worth it. i would avoid name brand, that logo cost alot...

if every cast caught a fish, it would be called "catching" not "fishing"
