This is also a thought, but at twice the price is probably not. Serious contender:
8" Benchtop Buffer

Or, we have an old washing machine that the transmission has gone out of that I could steal the electric motor from. That would probably work. Might be money ahead to buy the premade one though, by the time I bought everything else to make one though.
I have used the Harbor Freight buffer and it has about as much power as my grandma and her wheelchair... just saying...
