DIY disastersI just can't do power tools. They always fly out of control and end up embedded somewhere they shouldn't. I've no idea how I've still got all the appendages I was born with.
Add to that the fact that nothing ends up square, able to support weight or free of sticking-out sharp bits and you can see why I try to avoid DIY.
Tell us of your own DIY disasters.

1st two weeks in a row!A quick story now, more to follow.
I currently work for a furniture company, in the office, but I've helped out on the factory floor many a time, so wood-based DIY holds no fear for me.
Electrial things on the other hand, defeat me every time...
Some time ago, I was at my parents house, while they were away on holiday, and the fuse to the whole downstairs of the house went.
I tried changing it, and in the end decided to take the fusebox apart.
This was a bad idea, as I woke up an hour later, with a massively painful arm, and a bruised head.
I called it a day then, and decided never again to venture into the world of electrics.

YeahHaha, I guess it does.
I should start my own shop, Kaol's Fantabulous World Of Electrics...
Or I should stay well clear, perhaps.
