Project Ideas

Business

Desk Cable Grommet Retrofits

Offer a mobile service to add cable pass-throughs to office desks and conference tables. Drill 1-3/4 in holes in wood, laminate, or light metal and install matching grommets or brush inserts. Price per hole plus volume discounts for office rollouts.


Branded Checkers/Token Sets

Batch-produce 1-3/4 in wooden discs from hole-saw plugs and laser-engrave company logos, team crests, or wedding monograms. Package with a simple drilled game board. The tool’s plug ejection speeds production and keeps margins healthy.


Votive Candle Blocks and Sconces

Sell rustic candle blocks and wall sconces with 1-3/4 in recesses for standard glass votives. Offer finishes (walnut, oak, distressed paint) and gift sets. Low material cost, fast drilling in 2-by stock, and strong appeal on Etsy and at markets.


Custom Fishing Rod Racks

Produce wall and ceiling rod racks with clean 1-3/4 in cutouts sized for most rod handles. Sell through local bait shops, marinas, and online. Offer personalization and different wood species; batch drilling makes turnaround quick.


Perforated Acoustic/Art Panels

Create decorative wall panels by drilling arrays of 1-3/4 in holes in plywood or MDF, backed with acoustic felt. Market to home studios, cafes, and offices. The HSS edge handles occasional thin metal overlays for mixed-media designs.

Creative

Rustic Votive Candle Block

Drill 1-3/4 in recesses into 2x4 or 2x6 stock to create pockets for glass votives or metal tealight cups. The deeper saw body lets you bore clean, consistent depths in one pass, and the HSS edge handles hardwoods. Chamfer edges, stain, and add a metal insert for heat safety.


Sliding Door Finger Pulls

Create minimalist finger pulls by drilling a partial-depth 1-3/4 in hole in a barn door or cabinet slider. Mirror the recess on the opposite side if needed. The patented tooth form reduces tear-out in softwoods; finish with a light sanding and oil.


Custom Checkers and Game Tokens

Use the ejected plugs as 1-3/4 in wooden discs for checkers, counting tokens, or DIY board games. The large slot makes plug removal fast for batch production. Sand, paint or burn designs, and make a matching board by drilling a grid of shallow 1-3/4 in cups.


Wall-Mounted Shot Glass Display

Drill through-holes in a 1x board to cradle shot glasses (most rims 1.5–2 in). Add a backing strip and silicone rings for a snug fit. Mount with keyholes. The saw’s clean cut in wood and plastic lets you add acrylic fronts or edge lighting.


Fishing Rod Rack

Build a two-board rack: top board with 1-3/4 in holes (slot to the edge so rods drop in), bottom board with shallow V-notches. The deeper saw body easily handles 2-by stock. Finish with marine varnish for garage or dock use.
