This is a question DIY disasters

I 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.

*sniff*
I had to wipe away a tear. What a tragic end. I too used to tinker with cars - proper minis to be specific (plus 2 Fiat 126's - one of which I had to start with a broom shank, coz the starter cable snapped).
Happy days. I loved nothing better than spending days off playing with the tickover, taking the distributer cap off and lovingly sliding my feeler guage in the spark-plug gaps.........

*Ahem* that was starting to sound rude...

Of course, looking under the bonnet of a modern car these days.... PFFT! Wouldn't know my arse from my elbow....
