    my guess would be that yes it is too fast, there are other motors out there that are slower. I once saw a suggestion for using a motor from a microwave rotisserie. one of those should be cheep to free with as many old microwaves are in the land fill and in peoples garages, My son made a rod turner out of a can opener, (worked ok) If you don't mind ruining your screwdriver you could probably use a lower voltage. Hit your local goodwill garage sale etc, I'm sure you will find something.
