Project Ideas
Business
Quick-Turn Tapcon Anchoring
Offer a mobile service to drill 5/32 in pilot holes and install 3/16 in Tapcon screws for signage, shelves, brackets, hand-sanitizer stations, and fixtures on brick or concrete. The SDS Plus speed and hex-drive sleeve enable rapid drilling-to-driving transitions for efficient, clean installs.
Outdoor String-Light Installations
Specialize in clean, code-aware patio and storefront string-light mounting on masonry. Provide layout, drilling, Tapcon anchoring, hardware, and weatherproof cable management. Market to cafes, patios, venues, and property managers for seasonal or permanent lighting.
Perforated Concrete Decor Line
Manufacture and sell drilled concrete lanterns, candle sleeves, and privacy blocks with dot patterns. The carbide-tipped bit and U-flute support repeatable, high-volume drilling with long bit life. Sell via Etsy, garden centers, and boutique home stores; offer custom patterns and monograms.
Cable/Conduit Clip Anchoring
Provide fast, neat anchoring of cable straps and small conduit clips on masonry for low-voltage, security, and AV contractors. Drill 5/32 in holes and drive Tapcons for secure clip points at consistent spacing. Package as per-drop pricing with same-day service.
Signage and Fixture Templating
Create and use reusable drill jigs to install small signs, wayfinding plates, menu boards, and mailbox numbers on masonry with perfectly aligned 5/32 in holes. The quick-change hex sleeve speeds pilot drilling and screw driving, minimizing onsite time and rework.
Creative
Cinder-Block Lanterns
Drill starfield or geometric patterns through standard cinder blocks or thick concrete pavers to create outdoor lanterns. The 5/32 in carbide tip and U-shaped flute help clear dust for clean, deep perforations. Drop in LED candles and enjoy dotted light. Add rubber feet and a clear sealer to finish.
Patio String-Light Anchors
Create discreet anchor points in brick or concrete for outdoor string lights. Drill 5/32 in pilot holes and drive 3/16 in Tapcon screws using the interlocking hex drive sleeve to switch from drilling to driving quickly. Add small stainless screw eyes to clip lights neatly along a planned path.
Modular Masonry Trellis
Mount cedar battens to a block or brick wall to form a modern trellis. Use a simple grid (e.g., 16 in spacing), drill 5/32 in holes, and drive Tapcon screws to secure the wood strips. The SDS Plus hammering action speeds work and the carbide tip extends bit life across many holes.
Dot-Matrix Concrete Art Panel
Turn a fiber-cement backer board or cast concrete slab into wall art by drilling a matrix of 5/32 in holes that form an image or typography. Backlight with LED strips for a marquee effect. The U-flute keeps holes clear and consistent for crisp light points.
Planter Drainage Upgrade
Add clean drainage and overflow holes to terracotta or concrete planters to prevent root rot. Mark multiple 5/32 in holes in a circle and drill at low hammer setting for fragile clay; for concrete planters, use full SDS Plus hammer mode. Finish by deburring and lining with mesh.
