Custom Dot-Portrait/Signage Service
Turn photos and logos into halftone dot art by drilling 7/32 in arrays in plywood, aluminum, or acrylic and backlighting them. Market to homeowners, retail displays, and galleries. Use drill jigs and templates for speed; the no‑spin shank prevents bit slip during long runs.
Modern Peg Organizer Systems

The accurate pilot-point holes improve fit and finish, and the bulk 12-pack keeps production flowing with minimal downtime.
Brass-Inlay DIY Kits
Sell DIY coaster or wall-art kits that include pre-cut hardwood blanks, short pieces of 7/32 in brass tube, epoxy, a layout template, and a 7/32 in pilot-point bit. Customers drill and inlay at home for a premium look. The included bit reduces customer friction and ensures clean results across wood species.

Creative
Perforated Lanterns and Tin-Can Lamps
Drill 7/32 in starbursts or geometric patterns in thin steel cans or sheet metal to create dramatic lanterns. The pilot point starts on contact so the bit won’t skate on curved cans, and the titanium coating helps it power through metal cleanly. Add a tea light or LED puck and play with pattern density for different glow effects.
Brass Tube Dot Inlay Art
Use 7/32 in OD hobby brass tubing as inlay dots. Drill 7/32 in holes in hardwood coasters, cutting boards (edge-grain), picture frames, or knife scales, glue in short brass tube sections, and flush-cut/sand for a luxe speckled look. The pilot point delivers crisp entry holes with minimal tear-out in wood and the no‑spin shank keeps the bit solid in your chuck for repeatable spacing.
Modern Pegboard/Rod Wall
Create a minimalist organizer by drilling a clean grid of 7/32 in holes in hardwood, plywood, or aluminum plate. Use 3/16 in stainless or brass rods as removable pegs/hooks with a bit of wrap or sleeve for snug fit. The accurate, clean holes from the pilot point tip make the grid look professional and the titanium coating helps when switching between wood and metal backers.
String-Art Peg Board
Drill an array of 7/32 in holes in a wall plaque to accept short 3/16 in dowel pegs. Arrange pegs to form letters or shapes and weave colored cord for bold string-art designs. The tapered web and titanium coating provide durability while making many closely spaced holes in hardwood without snapping.
Custom Speaker Grilles/PC Mod Panels
Perforate thin aluminum or acrylic with 7/32 in holes for bespoke speaker grilles or PC case mods. The pilot point reduces walking on slick surfaces for straight rows and the jobber length is easy to control for consistent panel perforation patterns.
