I have ethical issues with cross posting to another site, but you will find a number of good ideas at http://theoildrop.server101.com/ubb/...=000035#000000

Depending on the mood the moderators there are in, you may have to register to read anything.

Hi Ed,
The drain's made out of chrome over brass so it can't rust but over time the brass corrodes and makes it hard to remove. You can purchase a tub drain removal tool from any plumbing wholesale house but we Just take a 1 1/4" piece of copper pipe and saw a cross about 1/4 or5/16ths in the end. That will fit right over the tub drain and all you need is a 14" pipe wrench and a little muscle. Cheers, Tom
