Sleep & rest
A bed frame that bolts apart — solid hardwood, mortise-and-tenon, and the joint that survives a move
The second specific record on the Sleep & rest shelf: the bed frame. We follow one object from the question the mattress left open — which joint survives a move — show where the ~$40-a-year floor comes from (a ~$1,200 frame over 30+ years against particleboard rebought every move), weigh mortise-and-tenon plus bed bolts against glued and particleboard, and name the makers in years.
