From the "if you can't fix it with a hammer, it isn't worth fixing
dept", why not buy a drill speed controller from the hardware store,
rip out the pot and replace it with a motorised pot from an
electronics store. You may need to adapt your pot into the
motorised one as it will be the wrong value and a log type.

Alternatively, a couple of belts and pullies from a VCR repair kit, a
hobby servo and a tube of 5 minute epoxy.
