I like that they make plane blades for planes they don’t sell. I have a 1920s Stanley that I can purchase a replacement blade from LV. They aren’t the only ones that do that but it’s cool that a tool from 100 years ago can be kept working with new parts if needed

Makes the funerals very romantic, but the child rearing is a bleak affair.

Ok, I had this same problem with the divot in my mattress. I did a bunch of research and found r/mattress to be really helpful. Basically almost no beds are bifl these days or even buy it for a decade. I ended up doing a DIY mattress and it’s worked well for me so far. Mattresses are hugely subjective though so YMMV…

The divot is likely only in your top layer or two of foam and putting a topper, even a firm one, over that divot isn’t going to solve the issue. But you don’t necessarily need to buy a whole new mattress either. The springs under those foam layers are probably fine. What i did and what you could do is cut into your mattress, remove the low quality foam they give you, and buy a new layer or two of latex from someplace like sleeponlatex to replace it. Then buy a mattress cover to keep all of it together. NOTE: cutting into your mattress will 100% void your warranty, so don’t do it unless you are sure it’s what you wanna do.

So I replaced my terrible hybrid bed that sank in 1 year (which replaced a bed that had the same problem) with two layers of much better quality latex and memory foam for about $350 and it should last much longer than a store bought bed. I kept the springs from my previous bed after I confirmed they were still perfectly fine. My favorite part of the DIY method is that I can easily and cheaply replace certain parts of the bed as they wear out rather than buying a new bed every time it gets uncomfortable.

Below is the post that inspired my decision to DIY my bed.
