How durable are these objects?

[Heater]

How many decay hits does it take to destroy a loom?

How many for chairs too?

[KoE]

I'm afraid I don't know the exact numbers, but I recall that looms are fairly fragile so they are best kept in a house. (You'll note they're huge so I recommend a timber house. Possibly a secondary one specifically for loom-related duties. I personally have my silk production, loom, and other miscellany herb-table related tasks in a second timber house.)

I keep finding lone chairs everywhere, keeping silent vigil over felled trees and partly plowed plots of ground. I once even found an entire forest of chairs. My guess would be that they're fairly sturdy, but I have nothing to back that up.

Thanks, I kind of expected that looms would be pretty easy to break (I mean, they certainly don't look like the sturdiest things in the world, if you know what I mean ) , but that means bad news for me since my Timber House can't fit a 2x2 object inside with the 10+ cupboards in it. Guess I'll have to make a new shed.

If it's any consolation, I am starting to plan out my fourth timber house since I am running out of room

Thanks for the help people

I built a loom in a new Timber House. Took me a few hours even with a cart+Straw Baskets. Whew!

Time to take care of those million plant fibers.

There are some objects that are especially susceptible to decay, like the loom and cupboards. You should keep these indoors:

I have now reduced the decay damage of several objects, in some cases quite a lot.

Here's a list of objects that should be kept indoors, though:
* Wineracks
* Anvils
* Spinning Wheels
* Churns
* Dream Catchers
* Carpets
* Cauldrons
* Coinpresses
* Looms
* Meat Grinders

Drying frames, wicker baskets and fireplaces will also decay very quickly, so if you really want to keep them, you should keep them indoors.

It could be argued that anvils should be keepable outside. I'm not sure.

Personally I prefer using carts and loading them up with 4 logs then walking them back cutting them down outside then moving inside and building, going back out and what not. Cart's are amazing especially if there are no immediately nearby trees.

As nice as the idea is... the houses are far too small to justify it. Even just having one of each of those things would take more space than I currently have, and that's not even considering all the cupboards you need for full on item storage. I think we need to change the paradigm on interior space. Like 20x20 houses with two floors.

uhh timber houses are not small and anyone can build them

not that i wouldnt mind more space

[Zamte]

I have a timber house, but it feels small when it's got cupboards lining all the walls. If I stuck a loom in it, it'd take up all the remaining floor space. You need to have enough space to put things, but also to move around and to operate them. They all just seem really tight. Stone mansion may be better, I haven't farmed up enough straw for mine yet.
