Project Ideas

Business

On‑Site Curved Tile Cut Service

Offer a mobile micro-service to homeowners and contractors who need odd-shaped cuts around outlets, pipes, and fixtures. Use the carbide grit blade for precise curves and notches in installed or loose tiles. Charge per cut with a minimum service fee; bring water spray, masking tape, and dust control for clean, low-mess work.


Custom Mosaic Address Plaques

Design and sell house-number plaques made from hand-cut tile mosaics on cement board or stone backers. The jig saw’s T-shank blade handles intricate letter curves. Offer color palettes and fonts, upsell UV-stable sealant, and market on Etsy and to local realtors as closing gifts.


Paver Personalization for Landscapers

Partner with landscape companies to add logos, compass roses, or monograms to patio pavers and garden stones. Pre-cut inlays in the shop and install on-site. Price per design complexity; bundle with sealing and anti-slip finishing for durability.


Make-and-Take Mosaic Workshops

Host paid classes where participants cut simple shapes from ceramic/slate and assemble coasters or trays. Provide printed templates, safety gear, and supervised cutting stations. Sell upgrade kits (premium tiles, sealers, diamond pads) and offer private events for team-building.


Tile Repair and Retrofit Microjobs

Specialize in small jobs: replacing cracked tiles, adding new outlets in tiled backsplashes, or enlarging holes for updated fixtures. The grit blade allows controlled trimming without removing entire sections. Offer flat rates for the first hour plus material markup and a clean-work guarantee.

Creative

Curved Tile Mosaic Tray

Use the carbide grit blade to cut petal, leaf, and wave shapes from ceramic or slate tiles to assemble a mosaic serving tray. The grit edge excels at smooth, curved cuts with minimal chipping, and the short blade makes tight radii easier. Seal the grout and finish the wood tray for a polished, functional art piece.


Shower Niche Inlay

Create a custom, curved inlay pattern for a shower niche or backsplash using contrasting tiles. Print a paper template, tape it to tiles, and follow the lines with the jig saw. The blade’s durable cobalt bi-metal body resists heat, and the deep gullets help eject slurry when you mist with water to reduce dust.


Garden Stepping-Stone Inlays

Cut silhouettes (leaves, paw prints, initials) out of porcelain or porcelain-look pavers and inlay them into concrete stepping stones. The medium carbide grit lets you nibble precise shapes in hard materials. Finish by sealing to resist weather and foot traffic.


Brick Luminary Lanterns

Drill starter holes, then use the blade to cut geometric windows into soft brick or lightweight concrete blocks to create candle lanterns. The curved cutting action allows arches and circles; add a heat-resistant finish and place LED candles inside for a warm patio feature.


Custom Tile Coasters and Trivets

Cut hexagons, quatrefoils, or scallops from slate or ceramic to make coaster and trivet sets. The grit blade reduces edge chipping on glazed tile; ease edges with a diamond pad and back the pieces with cork or felt. Package as a coordinated gift set.
