Project Ideas
Business
Mobile weld cleanup and edge chamfering
Offer on-site deburring, weld bead blending, and edge rounding for small fab shops, metal furniture makers, and handrail installers. Use carbide burrs, 1-1/2 in flap wheels, and surface-conditioning wheels to deliver paint-ready finishes. AC/DC compatibility lets you run off shop welders or a generator, making field work simple.
On-site engraving pop-up
Set up at car meets, craft fairs, and corporate events to engrave names, logos, and patterns on tools, metal tumblers, motorcycle parts, or keychains. With a generator-friendly grinder and a range of carbide/diamond bits (plus a 1/8 in collet adapter), you can personalize items in minutes and charge per piece or per initial/line.
Etsy shop: sculpted boards and bowls
Produce small-batch charcuterie boards, trays, and bowls with ergonomic, power-carved grips and hand-textured surfaces. Use burrs for shaping and 1-1/2 in flap wheels for silky transitions, then oil-wax finish. Offer custom monograms or inlaid resin channels. The repeatable workflow suits efficient batch production.
Small engine port cleanup and polish
Provide intake/exhaust port smoothing for kart, dirt bike, and small engine hobbyists using cartridge rolls and mandrels. Focus on casting flash removal and surface refinement for better airflow, plus gasket matching on manifolds. The grinder’s speed and 1/4 in collet accept the common abrasives used in this niche service.
Stone signage and memorials
Create custom slate or soapstone house numbers, garden markers, and pet memorial plaques. Carve with diamond burrs, color-fill, and seal; offer mounting hardware. Sell locally and install on-site using generator power when needed, or ship finished plaques from an online storefront.
Creative
Power-carved bowls and spoons
Shape small bowls, kuksas, and serving spoons from hardwood offcuts. Rough out with double-cut carbide burrs, then blend contours with 1-1/2 in flap wheels and sanding drums. The paddle switch gives great feathered control around tight interiors, while variable speed helps prevent burning on dense woods. Finish with felt bobs and compound for a satiny, food-safe oil finish.
Textured metal art panels
Transform scrap steel or aluminum into wall art by layering textures: cross-hatching, stippling, grooves, and polished highlights using 1/4 in carbide burrs and surface-conditioning wheels on mandrels. The 25,000 rpm speed makes clean, chatter-free patterns; polish raised areas to catch light, then apply patinas or heat-coloring for dramatic contrast.
Stone address plaques
Carve numbers and motifs into slate, soapstone, or marble tiles using diamond burrs and 1-1/2 in polishing wheels. Variable speed helps keep the bit cool and the cut crisp. Paint-fill the recesses and seal the stone for outdoor durability. Mount on a cedar backer for a boutique, handcrafted look.
Custom tool and hardware engraving
Personalize hammers, wrenches, knives, belt buckles, and guitar plates with initials, filigree, or geometric patterns. Use fine carbide or diamond bits; add a 1/8 in collet adapter for micro-burrs. The die grinder’s precise paddle control lets you taper lines and create clean borders, then finish with felt bobs for a bright cut.
Knife and gear finishing
Refine knife spines, choils, and handle scales (G10, micarta, wood) with cartridge rolls, small flap wheels, and Scotch-Brite-style wheels. Round sharp edges, add chamfers, and blend transitions. Variable speed reduces resin smearing on composites; the 1/4 in collet holds sturdy mandrels for consistent surfaces.
