DIY Garden & Home Flat-Pack Kits
Manufacture pre-cut, bolt-together kits—trellises, planter boxes, firewood racks—shipped with hardware and finishing tips. The consistent edge quality from the 0.045 in wheel reduces post-processing, streamlining small-batch production.
Stainless Retrofits for Kitchens & Breweries
Specialize in cutting and fitting stainless and nickel-alloy brackets, guards, drain covers, and shelves for commercial kitchens and breweries. Market the hygiene and durability benefits of low-burr edges and corrosion-resistant materials.
Reclaimed Steel Art & Decor Line
Source scrap steel and transform it into industrial wall art, silhouettes, and small furniture accents. The wheel’s aggressive cut and fiberglass reinforcement help process variable materials safely and efficiently for a sustainable, story-driven product line.
Creative
Layered Steel + Stainless Wall Panel
Cut geometric tiles and strips from mild steel and stainless sheet with the thin 0.045 in wheel for tight seams and low-burr edges. Mix patinated steel with brushed stainless to create depth, then mount pieces on a wood or aluminum backer for an industrial-modern art piece.
Rebar Garden Trellis & Tomato Cages
Quickly cut rebar or rod into repeatable lengths for modular trellises and cages. The aggressive aluminum-oxide grain speeds cuts while the thin kerf reduces cleanup, making plant-friendly supports that assemble with tie wire or simple clamps.
Flat-Pack Firewood Rack
Cut angle iron and flat bar to precise lengths for a bolt-together firewood rack that ships and stores flat. The low-burr cuts minimize edge finishing; add a blackened oil or powder coat finish for a clean, durable look.
Custom Address Numbers & Mailbox Plate
Cut bold numerals and a matching mailbox fascia from stainless steel for weatherproof curb appeal. The wheel’s thin profile allows crisp inside corners and less deburring; add a contrasting backer and standoffs for a premium layered effect.
Modular Steel Planter Boxes
Produce sheet panels and angle frames for bolt-together planters in custom sizes. The reinforced wheel handles carbon steel and stainless, yielding clean edges that align easily at the corners; finish in corten-style patina or color-match paint.
