Distracting your opponents?

Poker is a bit of a head game. If I can get a fellow player off his game it is to my advantage. Lately I have been doing some chip tricks at the table and have found they distract the other players just enough to take their minds off the game if just for a minute or two. When I start shuffling a stack within about 5 minutes at least half of the players at the table are trying to mimic my actions. I find this helps my focus and puts my opponents off gaurd.

Do you employ any tricks or mind games at the table to take you opponents off their game?
