I recently purchased a Foredom Flex Shaft. The mounts Foredom sell are fixed to the bench. I am running out of space so I designed and made one that can be moved around.

The stand is 3/4" black pipe attached to a disk brake a friend gave me. Attached are a couple of photos and a link to a video that gives more detail.
I also made the 3/16" mandrel that's in the tool holder. It's made out of 1/2" cold rolled round bar.

I like your disc brake rotor base, good re-use of otherwise scrap metal.
 
Figure out a way to secure the motor to the stand. Helps prevent an oscillation inside the conduit and work piece.
