FragHog

Custom made tool for cutting coral frag plug sockets into an HDU foam mold. Pockets where coral fragments can be glued in to give the artifical reef a headstart. This geometry wasn’t possible to cut with the CNC router because it was an undercut, the end mill could not reach it.

Made from heat treated tooling epoxy with a steel shank, cast in a rubber urethane mold.

Designed and fabricated in collaboration with Ryan Hoover, Nadia Nazar, Kate Boyer, and Rachel Rusk for Co-Lab
