Not sure if it would be worth the expense, but this sounds like the perfect
job for a CNC router like a shop-bot or Shapeoko.  If you wanted it to be
perfectly round, you might be able to accomplish the same thing by putting
a fly cutter in a drill press and taking a little bit off, then reducing
the diameter and then going a little bit deeper, over and over again.  BUT
you should NEVER put a fly cutter in a drill press.
