This old tub does not have the typical cross strainer I see on most tube that you can use a tub drain wrench on... I don't actually even see where there would have been the cross bars, it looks and feels smooth, not like the bars rusted and broke off. Is this drain made so that those two nubs you see are made to fit with a typical tub drain wrench for removal? Or will I have to use either this:

or this:

The last one is very pricey at $80, but I heard you might be able to rent them... anyone can confirm this and where?

I'm wondering if those two nubs would prevent either of those tools from working, unless of course they truly are made to match up with a standard tub drain removal tool.
