Got some machining involved in this project to make it legit.
Went to the local village hardware store to see if they had any sort of flex shaft or if Nancy the clerk were lend me her vibrator, she wouldn't, claimed she didn't own one so I bought a cheap Chinese dremel with a shaft.
Had some small bearings in the drawer, a piece of 3/4 tube and a printer shaft. Was too lazy to change chucks to make the eccentric so center drilled it and milled away one side. A pipe plug seals the bottom and locates the lower bearing. Which may not last, they run a little warm, unknown quality from a long forgotten source.

A bit of duct tape to mate it up and we have a vibrator.

Seams to shake things up, we'll know tomorrow, the pour begins.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
