This is a question DIY disasters

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.

I thought so too for a while but Dog soldiers lied to me, if you wikipedia it you'll find it was invented for simple glueing tasks

This is a QotW comment Uh
So I wikipedia'd it - like so - and it turns out it was developed by a bloke trying to make sights for guns. And a disposable cyanoacrylate spray was developed for use during the Vietnam war, though the FDA only relatively recently approved a different formula for medical use.
