Sure have, and Herbert Kabi would make spindles for you if you can afford
them ;-)

I think an inrunner would be better for that though..

But then - a proxxon spindle costs what? 20eur? something like that
anyway. Motor, collets, etc.. all in one unit. Not really much point in
rolling your own, unless you need more RPM or something.
