Default Engine Vibration- Isolating??

After trying to adjust the high speed needle valve recently, I realized how intense the vibraiton is in these small engines. I couldn't hardly hold on to the neeble valve. I am aware that extensions can help with this but I am more interested in isolating the vibrations to engine mount cheaply. I know about the isolation mounts sold by various manufacturers, so this isn't what I am looking to do. I don't want to unload a ton of money to do this. Rather, I am wanting ideas to build my own. One idea I had was to find some rubber material and cut round disk to mount behind the engine mount itself. They could even be different thicknesses to help control torque in the air. If you have experience with this please post your ideas to help me and others out.
