Project Ideas
Business
Rough-In Boring for Electricians/Low-Voltage
Offer a per-room or per-drop service drilling 3/4–1 in holes through studs and plates for Romex, conduit, and bundles. The augers’ nail-resistant tips reduce downtime on hidden fasteners, while high-speed cordless drilling increases holes-per-charge on big runs.
Modular Pegboard Wall Systems
Build and sell/rent retail and event display panels with dense 3/4 in hole grids for shelves and hooks. The short bits work between framing members on-site, and the wide flutes keep holes clean in laminated plywood for a premium finish.
Home Office Cable Cleanups
Mobile service to add clean 3/4–1 in grommeted pass-throughs to desks, cabinets, and built-ins, plus route and tidy cables. The compact 6.5 in length reaches tight compartments without disassembly, enabling fast, low-mess visits.
Small-Batch Birdhouses & Hive Vents
Produce and sell cedar birdhouses and beehive components with 3/4–1 in entrance and ventilation holes. The augers’ reinforced tips and chip evacuation speed up repetitive production in resinous woods, improving throughput and consistency.
Raised Bed & Planter Installations
Design/install raised garden beds with optimized 5/8–3/4 in drainage and irrigation pass-throughs. The cordless-optimized augers let you drill on-site quickly, even in wet or knotty lumber, improving job speed and profitability.

Birdhouse Village Build
Batch-build a set of small birdhouses with 1 in entrance holes and 5/8–3/4 in ventilation/drainage. The 6.5 in augers slip easily between fence pickets or studs in a garage shop, and the reinforced tips power through knotty cedar without bogging, even if you hit a stray nail in reclaimed boards.
Dowel-Peg Coat Rack
Drill 3/4 in holes into a hardwood plank to accept 3/4 in dowels as pegs. Use 5/8 in holes for keyhole-style hidden mounting and 1 in holes for decorative accents or cable pass-throughs at entry stations. The wider flutes clear chips fast for clean, straight bores.
Live-Edge Desk Cable Pass-Throughs
Add 3/4–1 in cable grommet holes to a live-edge desktop or media console. The reduced-pitch tip maintains control in end grain and awkward angles, while the short overall length helps you drill tight spots behind drawers without removing the carcass.
Swedish Torch Airflow Logs
Turn a thick log into a Swedish torch by boring multiple 1 in vertical and cross-ventilation holes to create chimney effect channels. The auger’s reinforced tip handles gritty bark and the cordless-optimized design lets you prep campfire logs off-grid quickly.
Portable Clamp/Dog-Hole Board
Create a portable work surface with a grid of 3/4 in dog holes for bench dogs, holdfasts, and toggle clamps. The fortified spine keeps the bit tracking straight through 3/4–1 in thick plywood without wandering, producing a reliable jig board.
