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.

refridgerator unit"Sir the ceiling in this rented store is making noise" THIS IS A BAD THING!
My boss and myself show up at a vietnamese grocery store that is rented by one of the craziest bastards I have ever met, thats another story. The ceiling is indeed making noise as they had installed a 5 ton(10,000 pound) refridgerator unit on the roof without permits, consulting engineers, or even thinking of taking the old ones off! How fast can we drive to Home Depot for braces before the fucking ceiling caves in, I know its 15 miles and I don't remember any of it. I remember fucking off ceiling tiles down and bracing up roof beams in 120 degrees, as fast as I can. I think, and this is what my boss told me I measured and installed 16 4x8 beams in less than 4 hours. Saved the roof which had to be reengineered, welded, braced, and I recieved, 60 dollars for a days work.
I hated those fucking store assholes, their live fish, seaweed, fucking dried everything everywhere and crap attitude when I saved their whole store.
