After the HS Automotive Technology Lab shop floor was epoxied this past summer, there was a need to replace missing and damaged floor drains. We reverse engineered the original design, created a new design in Autodesk Inventor and a new set on the plasma cutter.
Original Drain. Only one of the four original drains were undamaged.

After a bit of clean up, these are the finished parts ready to be installed in the floor.
