Business
Mobile Safety Anchoring Service
Offer on‑site anchoring of bookshelves, TVs, garage racks, and appliances into studs using 5/16 in lag screws with 1/2 in hex heads. Sell flat‑rate packages per room; the nutsetter’s short length and torsion zone speed clean, secure installs in tight spaces.
Raised Bed Kits and Assembly
Sell pre‑cut DIY raised garden bed kits (lumber, corrugated panels, 5/16 in carriage bolts, 1/2 in nuts) with optional on‑site assembly. Market to HOAs and urban gardeners; the magnetic nutsetter slashes build time, letting you complete multiple installs per day.
Trailer and Ladder Rack Refit
Provide a mobile service to replace corroded 5/16 in hardware on utility trailers, contractor ladder racks, and equipment mounts (common 1/2 in nut size). Use the impact‑rated nutsetter to quickly remove/replace hardware, billing per fastener or per assembly.
Playset/Pergola Assembly Crew
Assemble backyard playsets, pergolas, and swings that use 5/16 in lags with 1/2 in hex heads. Promote fast turnaround and safer builds; the precision‑milled, magnetic nutsetter improves fit and reduces dropped fasteners when working on ladders.
Property Manager Hardware Rounds
Offer recurring maintenance for complexes: tighten/replace 5/16 in gate hardware, handrail brackets, and signage using 1/2 in nuts. The short nutsetter reaches between pickets and angle frames, enabling quick stop‑and‑fix visits priced by the hour or per door/gate.
Creative
Corrugated Steel Raised Beds
Build modern raised garden beds using 2x lumber frames and corrugated steel panels, fastened with 5/16 in carriage bolts and 1/2 in hex nuts. The 1/2 in nutsetter’s magnetic, precision‑milled tip makes starting nuts one‑handed easy, and the short 1‑7/8 in length fits inside corners for quick assembly.
French Cleat Tool Wall Ledger
Mount a heavy-duty French cleat ledger to studs with 5/16 in x 4 in lag screws (1/2 in hex heads). The torsion zone absorbs impact driver hammering, reducing risk of rounding the hex heads while you set a perfectly straight, load‑bearing cleat for modular shop storage.
Angle-Iron Shop Cart
Fabricate a compact rolling cart from angle iron and a plywood top using 5/16 in hex flange bolts and 1/2 in hex nuts. The impact‑rated nutsetter reaches tight inside corners to spin nuts fast; the magnetic tip helps keep hardware captured while you juggle clamps and alignment.
Pallet Wood Bench With Bolt Accents
Create a rustic bench from pallet slats and 2x stock, then through‑bolt the joints with 5/16 in hardware (1/2 in nuts) for an industrial look. The heat‑treated nutsetter stands up to repetitive fastening and helps achieve consistent clamp‑force across all joints.
Shade Sail/Post Anchor Install
Set heavy shade‑sail plates or post bases into framing with 5/16 in lag screws (1/2 in hex). The compact nutsetter helps when working close to soffits, and the magnetic tip keeps lags aligned during awkward overhead installs.
