I have a piece of wood under my boxspring, wasn't my idea my Dad put it there. I have never bought a mattress or box spring in my life. When I moved into my place it had a bed and then at a later date a friend of mine who was a caretaker had a new homeowner who needed some very large pieces of furniture moved from their bottom floor to the top floor of the condo they just bought. The condo had 5 brand new beds in it that the new homeowner didn't want so they bartered with us, we each got a box spring, mattress, frame and headboard for moving the furniture. Now it is time for a new one.

A replacement for the 8 year old Costco Crank umbrella that has seen better days.

YES thats exactly what I was saying silly they don't offer one since yeah the huge very sturdy arm / crank is fine
my Daughter-in-Law who is a sewer even repaired our ends that had torn but its just not well after 8 years of our hot and wind.
I remember it being like $450 or so on line they are higher now at their website. Look around though cause I've noted several Furniture stores have them now in their patio stuff and no higher than what the Costco one was.

yeah I used the same tape you used to patch tops with but that was in 2018? It is just time to get another one, but yeah it sucks that I'm stuck with just having to get the whole thing again.
