What range of frequencies can a human sense in his or her hands?
 
At the lower end, 0 Hz.

At the upper end it is a bit more difficult to tell. Dose charts for vibration typically stop at 800 Hz, but they are attempting to measure damage, not sensation.

I can definitely feel 300 Hz, on an engine. Cheers
