I mounted the RC components off a helicopter to a tooth brush and got fantastic results. As I hit the accelerator, it vibrates more.

How to Make:
1.Buy a mini RC helicopter and take it apart. Also buy a rather large toothbursh.
2.You need to find the off-set on a vibrator from another device.(like a cellphone or pager) Take the little gear off the main roter motor and replace it with the off-set.
3.Cut the wires to the tail roter's motor. (You wont need it)
4.Use a hot glue gun to glue the battery to the top of the toothbrush.(after you cut off the handle)
5.Use hot glue to glue the motor and reciever ontop of the battery. Make sure the motor is facing backward and that the on/off switch and charger input is easily accesible.
6.Turn it on and givve it a test run. If it falls over, you may need to hot glue stabelizers on. (I used toothpicks)
7.If it continues to fall over, you may need to take the off-set off the motor and sand it down a little.
Enjoy!!!
