OK, had a small challenge today when my chic left at 6am, 'Can u please put up that mirror I asked last weekend'

It's done, but with one small secret... promise not to tell?

Here's the secret...coz with plastic pipes you can't detect them anymore

So, seems a good point to hear some of your DIY stories
 
:rofl:

Mate i feel for you!! You would think they should have some protection. You got right in the middle of that pipe though well done :poke:
 
I'll tell her when she gets home... though would help my therapy if I heard some of your other DIY disasters
 
Ahhh, I thought this was going to be about that scary looking dildo object in the refelction........



:tumbleweed:

That'll be Jemb's arm! :lol:

the long black object is not an arm :lol: it's the log burner chimney.
 
I did one better than that ... 20 years ago I drilled above a door in the kitchen (to put speaker wire in) and I went through the alarm cable as well as the water pipe. That was a metal one but I did not expect one to run over a door :)
 
in our last house the builders managed to nail gun through a central heating pipe - and perfectly seal it- no one noticed ..... until the nail corroded through 18 months later between christmas and new year - the reason for the central heating pressure loss instantly solved :slaphead:
 
:rofl:

I like the update on the wall OP.... and plus, you've managed to save some money from the original quote... well done! She can't be mad about that!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:


I can't remember having too many DIY nightmares.... except when I was trying to change the brakes on my first car...

I only had 2 scissor jakes to hold the car up...then realised I needed something from the house... and my keys were still in the garage door...

When I went to get them out... I put some pressure on the car, and both scissor jacks gave way, landing my car on the ground - on its disks...

:headbang: :headbang: :headbang:

Always my biggest fear with the car jacked up
 
I do remember err a friend telling me that they fixed a squeaky floorboard with a longish screw that proceeded to go straight through the central heating pipe... :whistles:
