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.

Learning OpportunityI'm very cack handed and have absolutely no ability at DIY which is odd because my Dad is some sort of DIY guru but after reading these stories I think even I've learned 2 things:
1) Drugs or drink and DIY don't mix
2) Never lose your temper when putting something together, you never know what the results will be but will almost certainly be detrimental to the finished product
So cheers B3ta for teaching me this valuable life lesson.

And how about:3) Reading the instructions isn't just for stupid people
4) If you're not an plumber/builder/whatever, don't do it.
