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.

It's not that I'm particularly bad at DIY...I just have a habit of starting a job and abandoning it halfway through.
Case in point - the Volkswagen Scirocco that ended up with no carpets or dashboard, as I intended to replace them but couldn't be bothered.
The wall that's half-white and half-pink.
The fact that every vehicle I've ever had has had at least one cable tie added by me.
Oh, and I've just installed a lock on the back gate. Not without drilling 30 holes in the wrong places first. It now looks like a tea-strainer.
