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.

goes shooting a lot. In fact, he told me the other day he'd spent £16k on shooting this season! Anyhow, one day a few years back (pre 9/11) he was flying out of Edinburgh airport and put his hand into the pocket of his jacket to find half a dozen live shotgun cartridges. Having already checked in by this point, he did the logical thing.
He dumped them in the nearest bin.
I can only imagine what would happen if he were to try that today!
