Project Ideas
Business
Boutique Trim-Matching Service
Offer small-batch reproduction of historic or damaged profiles for homeowners and contractors. Use the multi-form bit to prototype and dial in close matches quickly, then run linear feet on a router table. Provide on-site sampling boards and charge per profile setup plus per-foot run.
Cabinet Edge Profiling Partner
Partner with local cabinetmakers to handle edge treatments for drawer fronts, shelves, and face frames. Maintain a menu of profiles (bead, ogee, cove, combo) that can be reproduced reliably by setting recorded fence and height positions. Price per linear foot with discounts at volume, delivering ready-to-finish parts.
Signature-Edge Board Brand
Launch a line of cutting and charcuterie boards distinguished by a unique multi-pass edge profile as your visual signature. The micrograin carbide tips keep the details crisp batch after batch, supporting consistent branding. Sell direct-to-consumer and wholesale to gift shops and caterers.
Custom Frame Shop (Etsy + Local Markets)
Produce picture frames with premium compound edges using reclaimed hardwoods. Offer standard sizes and custom orders, with upsells for matched molding for mirrors. The versatile bit reduces tooling costs while enabling a wide style range, improving margins on small-batch production.
Workshops and Profile Kits
Host weekend classes teaching homeowners to refresh spaces with custom trim and shelf edges. Provide take-home profile setting cards (fence/height references) and upsell pre-milled sample sticks. Revenue comes from class fees, material kits, and follow-on milling services for larger jobs.
Creative
Heirloom Keepsake Box
Build a small box where each edge features a different profile created by raising/lowering the multi-form bit and adjusting the fence. Use a classic ogee on the lid, a bead on the base, and a soft cove on the box body for contrast. The micrograin carbide tips leave crisp details that need minimal sanding, helping the mixed profiles look intentionally refined.
Art Deco Floating Shelves
Mill the shelf edges with stepped reveals by taking multiple passes at incremental heights to form a shadow-line motif. Match the shelf brackets with the same profile so the set reads as one design. The hardened shank and large 2-1/4 inch diameter keep cuts smooth on long grain, ideal for consistent runs across several shelves.
Gallery-Grade Picture Frames
Create a compound edge (bead + ogee + ovolo) on frame stock by sequencing fence and height changes. Miter and assemble for a classic museum look without buying multiple dedicated bits. The fine-ground carbide lets you pull crisp beads that elevate even simple hardwoods like maple or cherry.
Custom Wainscot Cap and Base Cap
Produce a coordinated trim set by dialing in a graceful cove for the wainscot cap and a smaller bead-and-roundover for the base cap. Because the cutter is multi-form, you can iterate quickly to match existing home details or invent a new house style. Run consistent lengths on a router table for room-wide continuity.
Sculpted Serving Tray
Profile the tray rim with a tall cove on the top face and a subtle under-bead on the underside to create a comfortable handhold. A couple of shallow passes prevent tear-out while the carbide edge holds sharp detail through hardwoods. The result feels ergonomic and looks boutique without specialized cutters.
