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.

The sad tale of The GlueOver the long Easter weekend I was fixing a few bits and pieces around the house, and found that the front of a shelf was coming off.
I decided to use superglue to fix it back on, so I glued it all on, maybe being a little free with the amount that I used.
I noticed that I'd got a lace on my boots untied, so I bent down, rested my head on the front of the cabinet, tied it, then stood up, ripping out a good-sized clump of hair.
I felt both stupid, and hurt. Decided against telling anyone, so I had to get scissors to cut my now-disembodied hair from the front of the shelf. Left me feeling a right fool.

Thanks :)I'm just glad I didn't glue my head-skin to it.
That could've been horrific...
