Project Ideas

Business

Mobile Stainless Finishing for Breweries/Kitchens

Offer on-site grinding and blending for weld repairs, equipment installs, and edge de-burring in breweries, commercial kitchens, and dairies. Market fast turnaround and sanitary-ready surfaces, with pricing per linear foot of weld or per fixture.


Subcontract Weld Blending for Fab Shops

Partner with local metal fabricators to handle their grinding/finishing overflow. Provide standardized finish grades, quick pick-up/drop-off, and per-part pricing. The durable zirconia wheel keeps margins healthy on repetitive, high-removal tasks.


Marine Rail & Hardware Refurb

Service marinas and yacht owners by removing tea staining, pitting, and weld discoloration on stainless rails, cleats, and fixtures. Offer tiered packages: heavy defect removal with the grinding wheel followed by finer finishing passes for a uniform sheen.


Food Truck Stainless Refresh

Provide a refit service for food trucks: remove old mounts, grind patch welds flush, smooth cutouts, and prep surfaces for new equipment. Bundle services with inspection-readiness and quick weekend turnarounds to minimize downtime.


Custom Stainless Furniture Line

Develop a small-batch line of stainless tables, benches, and shelving with signature blended welds and brushed faces. Use the 7" wheel for efficient prep and consistent visual lines, and sell direct-to-consumer or to cafés and retail spaces.

Creative

Brushed Stainless Coffee Table

Fabricate a minimalist coffee table frame from stainless steel tubing and a sheet top. Use the 7" Type 27 wheel to bevel edges, grind welds flush, and lay in a uniform brushed direction on visible faces. The zirconia grain keeps removal fast and consistent, while the 7" diameter speeds up uniform finish on large panels.


Custom Stair Handrail

Build a modern stainless steel wall-mounted handrail with clean, blended welds at joints and brackets. The high-grain, zirconia wheel quickly removes weld crowns and heat discoloration, and the Type 27 profile helps blend transitions smoothly for a professional, ready-for-polish look.


Outdoor BBQ/Smoker Fabrication

Create a stainless firebox or smoker door assembly. Use the grinding wheel to true up cut edges, chamfer for weld prep, and blend welds on hinges, handles, and seams. Fiberglass reinforcement adds confidence when working long joints and heavy sections.


Motorcycle Crash Bars & Racks

Fabricate stainless crash bars or luggage racks with tight, TIG-welded joints. Grind and radius the welds to a seamless look, then prep for finer finishing. The 7" size covers long tube runs quickly and keeps lines consistent across mirrored pairs.


Sculptural Garden Install

Design a stainless garden sculpture with layered plates and negative-space cutouts. Use the grinding wheel to carve facets, ease sharp edges, and add directional texture that catches light. Zirconia’s extended life lets you explore surface treatments without frequent disc changes.
