I doubt the Dremel has the torque needed to spin a decent sized roundover bit. You're going to have to either get a real router or find a friend that has one.

the dremels are awesome tools but that takes a lot of balls to do.

With the small collet size of 3/16, this is all I have found for that tool:

TR615 Trio 1/8

It's a 1/8'' roundover. May wanna look into buying a larger roundover and grinding down the shaft to fit in the collet.

the most i would go with for a round over is 1/4 but thats just me.

That dremel aint got the torque to cut 3/4" wood.

I normally use 3/8" round-overs.

The 3/8" roundover also allows you to do a complete half-circle roundover on a 3/4" piece of MDF.
