How many times has a friend or acquaintance pitched a business proposal that is based on – you guessed it – an app?

Yawn.

By now I am sure you have lost count, and can probably only recall one idea that might have had a little potential (if only they would drop the instant-photograph aspect, though.)

Well, someone out there pitched a proposal to a friend and not only is it great, but it’s also 100% local. The idea is based on actually solving a real-life problem: plaster dust.

You know, the stuff that falls from the wall when you drill into it? The stuff that casually floats to the closest landing point, creating a fine mess on every surface in its immediate drop zone.

No?

To be fair if you have never used a drill I understand – so I am going to let Drilby explain just what I am referring to you with this pretty shweet video:

Do you see how the little device works to catch the plaster dust? Amazing, isn’t it.

Well, if you want one – or better yet, know someone who wants needs one – we know the source. Only available in South Africa for now, Drilby can be bought HERE.

Just imagine how happy your assigned life-driller will be when they realise they don’t have to use the dustpan ever again – especially after an intense drilling session for those display shelves you just ” had to have!”
