DIY nightmares

Posted: 9/3/2008 12:00:00 AM By Angie | 0 comments


Angie's List was featured on the Today show yesterday!

In case you missed it, here's the video link: http://today.msnbc.msn.com. Just click on the 'Do-it-yourself dangers' image when you get there.

I was talking about more DIY dangers. Only instead of someone tumbling off their roof while cleaning their gutters, we featured a member who shot himself with a nail gun! Check out the photo:

Yikes! If any of you have had DIY injuries or DIY-induced scars, don't hesitate to drop me a comment to let me know what happened and how you coped.

And before you embark on any DIY project, remember to ask yourself three important questions:

  1. What experience (if any) do I have?
  2. Do I have the time?
  3. Do I have the right tools?
