Hi,
I have a tub drain that I want to remove.
It measures 1.5 inches across. However, it narrows a bit, such that the Home Depot Husky extractor does not fit no matter how much I try to pound it in.

Is there a smaller extractor that can be used ?

It doesn't need to fit all the way in, just enough to grab. Are the cross hairs broke out?

I use a reciprocating saw and a old screw driver and small sharp chisel OR get a 1" pipe and cut slots in it and it is easy to remove the strainer

Hey, wait a minute.

This is awkward, but...
