I was thinking the same thing. Those are pretty cheap, and the chain drive output spins pretty slow. You could use another sprocket off the chain drive to get even more reduction. And BrianG's dimmer idea would work as well, just have to wire the motor directly to the feed, and bypass the internals. Or you could modify the controls and have cordless control, but that is probably not worth it.
