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.

Well, that was my reasoning - candles are made out of wax, which is a form of fat. Granted, it doesn't also contain oil, grease and little lumps of burnt meat, but I haven't the tools to refine the stuff.
Besides, if the book Perfume is anything to go by, apparently they were still using animal fat to preserve scent and create perfumes only a couple of hundred years ago.
