"Evan and Katelyn" is the name of a youtube channel where (amongst other less mature things) they make a bunch of small things with concrete and epoxy, like a concrete keyboard. Both materials (especially concrete) need some assistance in flowing into small spaces and getting bubbles out. For the size of project they often work on... a personal vibrator seems to work damn well.

Specific professional tools to vibrate viscous fluids to get bubbles out of it exist (like those odd looking concrete vibrators), but for a small handheld vibrating tool there is already an enormous market of affordable tools which do just that.
