Project Ideas
Business
No-Flame Retrofit Plumbing Service
Offer a mobile, press-only upgrade service for copper and stainless CTS in occupied buildings (hotels, schools, offices) where open-flame soldering is disruptive or restricted. The jaws’ 1/2 in. to 4 in. capacity lets you handle everything from fixture stubs to large mains with fast, consistent connections. Emphasize speed, clean installs, and reduced downtime.
Prefabricated Pressed Manifolds
Set up a shop that fabricates custom domestic water and hydronic manifolds using copper/stainless CTS and press fittings. Provide builder-ready, labeled assemblies with pressure test documentation, saving contractors onsite labor. Standardize SKUs (e.g., 4-, 6-, 8-port) and offer rapid turnaround leveraging the tool’s repeatable press quality.
Custom Copper Fixtures Studio
Design and sell made-to-order copper racks, shelving, and architectural accents pressed for clean, professional seams. Market to cafes, retail boutiques, and interior designers seeking industrial-modern pieces. Offer on-site measurement and installation using the DEWALT-compatible press setup for a full-service experience.
Emergency Leak Repair Subscription
Launch a 24/7 rapid-response leak repair service for commercial and multi-family properties. Press couplings and adapters let you isolate and restore service quickly without draining entire systems or dealing with fire permits. Package tiered subscription plans that include annual inspections and priority response SLAs.
Press Tool Rental + Training
Rent out the DEWALT-compatible press tool with these CTS jaws and provide brief on-site or video training covering fitting compatibility and best practices. Target small contractors and maintenance teams who need occasional press capability without full purchase. Upsell consumables, calibrated ring checks, and optional liability coverage.
Creative
Modular Copper Plant Shelving
Build wall-mounted, reconfigurable plant shelves using 1/2 in. to 3/4 in. copper CTS tubing with press tees and elbows. The jaws deliver clean, consistent joints so shelves sit square and strong without solder. Polish or clear-coat the copper for a warm finish, and use slip-in wood planks for easy rearrangement.
Minimalist Garment Rack
Create a boutique-style clothing rack from 1 in. stainless CTS tubing for strength with copper accents at the joints. Press connections keep the frame rigid and professional without welding, and the corrosion-resistant coating on the jaws supports repeated, clean presses. Add locking casters and a lower shelf for shoes or storage.
Geometric Pendant Frames
Form modern polyhedral lamp frames from 1/2 in. copper tubing joined with press elbows and tees. The even pressing force creates crisp, aligned geometry, ideal for symmetrical designs. Thread UL-rated cord sets through the tubes and use canopy kits to finish for a striking, custom lighting collection.
Garden Water Feature & Irrigation Manifold
Combine form and function by pressing a branching copper manifold (1 in. main with 1/2 in. takeoffs) that feeds planters while serving as a sculptural water feature. Pressed joints reduce leaks and withstand outdoor conditions. Hide a small pump in a base reservoir, and incorporate quick-shutoff press valves for maintenance.
Under-Cabinet Wine Glass Rack
Use 1/2 in. copper CTS tubes pressed into parallel rails to cradle stemware under cabinets. Press tees create perfect spacing and a sturdy frame without solder discoloration. Finish with a food-safe sealant and matching copper screws or brackets for a cohesive look.
