That's amazing! But it had to originally have had a mechanism so that it could be used often, right? The video also shows them removing nails in a piece of flooring and I can't imagine they did that every time either.

Mind blown.

Maybe the floor panels used to be doweled in and you would have a knob you could pull them up?
