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.

Homemade Chilli Vodka aka "Liquid Mouth Death"
Back when I was a bit more innocent/ignorant I decided to make some Chilli Vodka.

I had several rather successful attempts of the "Put chilli in vodka, leave it 2-3 weeks, drink and be merry" type but then I decided to move on and create "uber" chilli vodka. Bad idea. Very bad idea.

Someone had told me the best chilli vodka had to mature for a year. "Right then, lets do this right" I thought striding into my local supermarket.
Quality brand of Vodka, Check.
A handful of large chilli's that could still fit in the bottle (so it would look good and big chilli's are mild, 1 year remember?), check.
No sense of impending doom and destruction, check.

So I put it all together and left it for a year.

Year over and out it comes. 1 bottle of browny/orange Vodka with a handful of large white chilli's. Yup that's ready.

Oh boy. That vodka was hard to drink. So very very very hot. We only managed 1/3 of the bottle before giving up, but not, it's not over yet. I then decided to make it stronger (I still don;t know why).

So I changed it to a new bottle and put Bird's Eye Chilli's in and then left it for another year!

1 shot of the stuff gave peopel hicups, made them drool like 3 months babies looking at page 3 of the Sun and (for one person) be noisily sick. and the next morning poos.... Ever wanted to use sandpaper to stop the pain of your burning poopchute?

Someone named it "Liquid Mouth Death" and it stuck.

That sounds deadly
But fun too! I like how this QOTW has been slightly hijacked to talk about drinks now.
