SUMMARY

The Spinbrush Massager, derived from the Spinbrush toothbrush motor, provides effective relief for sore muscles, particularly in the back, neck, and shoulders. Users can detach the bristle head to expose a rapidly moving piston, which delivers powerful massages. For enhanced comfort, attaching a pencil eraser is recommended for use on bony areas. Additionally, a tungsten carbide tip can be brazed onto the device, potentially transforming it into a low-power engraver.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of basic mechanical devices and their components
  • Familiarity with the Spinbrush toothbrush design
  • Knowledge of safe attachment methods for tools

Alright, ladies... I've discovered a wonderful new device...

ahem...

W does a lot of lifting at work, and needs back/neck/shoulder rubs almost every night. Back when I had a 390 lb. grip, I could give massages for hours; the arthritis has cut it down to a couple of minutes.
Considering how many Spinbrush toothbrushes I've disassembled to get the motors, I can't believe that I never discovered this until this morning. When you just remove the head with the bristles on it, you're left with a very rapidly moving piston exposed. It gives awesome massages, but you might want to attach something like a pencil eraser when using it on bony areas like elbows.
I suspect that brazing a tungsten carbide tip to it instead of an eraser might also allow it to function as a low-power engraver.
For someone with sore muscles, it might be worth shelling out the $7.00 or whatever to give it a try.

Ahahah:redface: I mean, yea cool..sore tense muscles:!)
 
Hmmm...
If a pencil eraser does it for you, you must have guys lined up around the block. Uhh, I misplaced my address book. Please be so kind as to PM me the information that got, er... lost. :rolleyes:
 
Its the tungsten carbide tip that really makes me swoon, a girls best friend is her "engraver".
 
Reminds me of the old joke about the definition of a 'tough woman'...
she hand-rolls her own tampons and kick-starts her vibrator.
 
you've must have done well in creative writing class :biggrin:
