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.

Always great fun. Whilst at a rowing training camp, several rafts were made. You'd think Cambridge engineers would be able to work out buoyancy and design something that floated.... no. Mine was made of some old doors we found, on the reasoning that doors are lightweight and full of air. It floated, only slightly below the surface...
