I've had an IKEA sink in the bathroom for a few years now... (https://www.ikea.com/gb/en/products/washstands-taps/wash-basins/rättviken-single-wash-basin-white-art-10216575/
...and the waste plug, goes in the central hole of the waste, a bit like a manual "pop up" waste, except it jams in the hole, and you can't get it out easily. I cured this by removing the O-ring, and always meant to replace it with a wire ring, but there was nowhere to keep the plug when it wasn't being used anyway.
Cue some BigRep Pro HT black filament, a Robox QuickFill, and a couple of minutes on the CAD, and another STL was created. An hour later at 0.2mm layer heights, no support it's done, and once I repeated this for the shrinkage, it was sorted.
The waste doesn't overflow properly normally, so this doesn't seem to make any difference, but other slots could be put in the two remaining sides if needed. It doesn't look too bad, and it makes a change from seeing the back of the white waste through the normal chrome ring.
Nobody has realised it's a 3D print so far. :)
