For the sake of discussion, opportunity cost...a rotary broach holder is over 10x more expensive than a rotary broach. Doesn't make sense to invest that much effort for a $65 tool.

At the same time I don't see the value in making the holder, as it will be worse quality than a COTS one and not work as well, while requiring significant time investment.
