DIY disastersI 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.

My ex had one of the old Saabs.It broke down in York, and she called a mechanic, something to do with the brakes. Basically they were buggered, and it required a day or so in the car hospital, so she innocently asks, "Could you just bodge them up a bit, we need to get home?"
The mechanic's face was a picture, "We do NOT bodge brakes."
