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.

BzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzOW
My dearest darling wife is no longer entrusted with the whirring ceramic blades of death on the grounds that if she manages to finally hack through my ear my glasses will fall off.

How hard can it be, thought I? Here's a hint.

If the person in question is holding the clippers as if they were a pre-menstrual Pit Viper in a really bad mood, before nervously jabbing at your head with a trembling 'pokey pokey' arm action, then she may be unsuitable to trust your bonce to.

I now use a mirror.

She does go all wibbly when I wash her hair for her though....
