Not a direct bolt on, but I use a MAKITA 701 with approximately 2mm shim for the DeWalt mount. Main reason was to adapt the Makita for variable spindle speed (I get 8600 - 30000 RPM with G-code electronic modification. It will do about 8600 - 30000 out of the box with no modifications (manual mode).

I think @LarryM is saying that the Makita, which is also 65mm, fits with a 2mm shim. His solution could work for your 65mm spindle.

There are others in the forum. Just remember that the Makita is 65mm.
