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.

100% on-topic posts are for Losers!
So I decided I didn't need any assistance with getting down to Bournemouth for my interview, I was going to Do It Myself!
(is there such a thing as tenuous points, i think ther should be...)
I got a bed and breakfast booked, costing 20 pounds
I went down on the train to Bournemouth, costing 26 pounds
2 hours later I was IN Bournemouth, and meandered my way to my bed and breakfast
I was in Bournemouth for an interview at the arts institute at 10am the next morning.
I treated myself a healthily greasy fish and chips, costing 2 pound 50.
I went to bed at a reasonable hour to be nice and rested for the interview.
I can’t sleep.
My horny drunken girlfriend is sending me texts, making me practically drunk on horn.
Tossing (steady now) and turning thinking about the interview I can't sleep till about 4am, and I get my sister's boyfriend to phone me the next morning to make sure I wake up.
I do anyway so that's fine.
I shower, have breakfast and sit down for the 10 minutes I have to spare.
I decide to read the letter Bournemouth sent me... maybe it'll be hiding the secret password that gives you instant access to the course!
'Dear Quibble, we would like to invite you to an interview at 10am on the 8th of April 2008....'

Shit.
It's the 4th...
