Project Ideas

Business

Cabinet Hardware Pilot-Hole Service

Offer on-site installation for knobs and pulls in kitchens and closets. Use the 7/64" bit to drill perfect pilot holes for #6 screws in hardwoods, leveraging the split point to avoid walking on finished faces. Pair with a layout jig for fast, repeatable, chip-free installs.


Custom Electronics Enclosure Drilling

Provide precision drilling for metal and plastic project boxes: small vents, pilot holes for switches, LEDs, and mounting standoffs. The split-point bit starts on contact in thin aluminum or ABS, speeding up small-run prototypes for makers, repair shops, and audio pedal builders.


Planter & Rain Barrel Retrofits

Sell and install drainage and micro‑irrigation upgrades. Drill 7/64" holes for drip emitters, aeration, and overflow paths in plastic planters, compost bins, and barrels. The pilot point and jobber length help keep holes straight and consistent, reducing cracking in thin plastics.


DIY Constellation Lantern Kits & Workshops

Package kits with pre-marked panels, patterns, lights, and finishing supplies, and teach classes where customers drill their own star-map lamps. Market the precision of split-point holes as a feature: cleaner patterns, less wandering, and pro-looking results even for beginners.

Creative

Constellation Lightbox

Drill a star-map pattern through thin sheet metal or hardwood panels to make a backlit constellation lamp. The 7/64" split-point tip prevents walking on metal and the pilot point starts exactly on your marked stars, producing crisp pinholes that cast sharp, starry projections when lit from behind.


Sea-Glass Suncatcher Chime

Create a delicate mobile by drilling 7/64" holes in sea glass, shells, or acrylic discs and suspend them with fine wire or fishing line. The pilot point helps reduce cracking and slipping on slick or curved surfaces, giving you clean pass-through holes for tidy, tangle-free hangs.


Perforated Brass Jewelry

Punch lace-like patterns into thin brass or copper blanks to make earrings and pendants. The split-point geometry keeps the bit from skating on metal and the tapered web resists breakage across dozens of tiny perforations, yielding lightweight pieces with precise, repeating motifs.


Pocket Kalimba (Thumb Piano)

Build a small wooden kalimba by drilling accurate pilot holes for the tine bracket screws and a pattern of 7/64" soundboard vents. The no‑spin shank keeps torque steady in the chuck for consistent depth and alignment, improving tone and hardware fit.
