[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 475935, member: 6969"] When I was a lad, I used to play about with anything electrical. I don't recall now but I ended up with a small motor, mounted onto a base plate, driving an out of balance load. I noted how that thing wobbling would be good for smoothing cement. I had invented the wacker plate. My HND project was a low resolution low bandwidth handheld battery powered oscilloscope using a matrix of LED's as the display. Who would want such a thing with such a low resolution display? They were on sale 5 years later, and morphed of course into high resolution 'scopes with LCD displays (remember this was firmly in the days of mains powered CRT screen oscilloscopes, hell they had only just stopped using valves) [/QUOTE]
