Project Ideas
Business
Mobile Cut-to-Length Service
Offer on-site cutting for rebar, conduit, angle iron, and pipe using a compatible 20 mm arbor chop saw. Bill per cut or per hour, serving contractors who need quick prep without hauling stock offsite. The durable 3-layer reinforcement helps maintain uptime in high-throughput environments.
Jobsite Prep Station Rental
Rent a turn-key cutoff station (saw, stands, spark guards, and a 10-pack of wheels) to builders for short-term projects. Include basic safety briefings and optional operator service. Ideal for crews needing fast, accurate cuts without investing in permanent equipment.
Limited-Stock Abrasives Bundle Resale
Since this wheel is discontinued, bundle remaining inventory into value packs for makerspaces, vocational schools, and small fab shops with 20 mm arbors. Add clear compatibility notes and usage tips to reduce returns. Position as a budget-friendly, high-performance consumable while supplies last.
Quick-Turn Fabrication Microshop
Launch a small shop specializing in rapid metal cutting for local DIYers and artists—sell pre-cut blanks, gussets, tabs, and frames. The wheel’s efficient material removal supports competitive turnaround on small batches. Upsell finishing (deburr, drilling) and welding services.
Abrasive Cutoff Safety & Speed Workshop
Host paid workshops teaching safe, efficient abrasive cutting techniques: wheel selection, mounting for 20 mm arbors, cut planning, and edge finishing. Include a take-home wheel from the 10-pack and a safety checklist. Partner with makerspaces and trade schools to fill classes.
Creative
Industrial Skyline Wall Art
Use the 14-inch Type 1 cutoff wheel to cut skyline silhouettes and layered cityscapes from mild-steel sheet. The three-layer fiberglass reinforcement and smooth-running design help make long, straight contour cuts cleaner. Finish with heat patinas or powder coat for contrast and mount on reclaimed wood or standoffs.
Geometric Steel Planter Set
Cut sheet and angle steel into precise panels and frames for hexagonal or tapered planters. The high grain concentration in the A24/C24P abrasive speeds through edges and miters for tight seams, ready for tack welding and seam sealing. Weather-seal and add removable liners for indoor/outdoor use.
Custom Firewood Rack
Cut square tube and flat bar to length for a modern, modular firewood rack. The 1/8-inch wheel thickness helps keep kerfs narrow for snug joints and clean edges. Finish with black high-heat paint and adjustable feet for a sleek, sturdy storage piece.
Scrap-to-Sculpture Series
Turn rebar, pipe offcuts, and angle into abstract garden sculptures. The wheel’s smooth operation aids in slicing and notching varied scrap profiles for dynamic assemblies. Clear-coat raw steel or apply a rusted finish for outdoor character.
Modular Garage Storage Brackets
Cut flat stock and angle to fabricate heavy-duty wall brackets for lumber, clamps, and tools. Clean, square cuts from the high-speed wheel make hole alignment and welding easier. Batch-produce sets, then powder coat for a professional look.
