Bad DYI

Here are some classic examples of "do it yourself" gone wrong. You gotta laugh.

New! Sideways trap.


 Breakers keep tripping, so let's take them out.


 Eventually it will become a concrete wall equipped with weep holes...


 If one trap is good, why not put in two?


 The down spout can't handle the heavy rain, then let's help it.


 I guess somebody ran out of shorter nails.


Sideways trap #2. 


The upside-down trap.


 Leaky drain, out of duct tape, then use electrical tape.


 If they can hold you up then why not the awning?


 How about a long flexible elbow?


 A combination sink and shower. You can brush your teeth and wash your back at the same time.


 Use of spare electrical boxes as spacers.


 Shower ceiling too low? No problem.


Oh Boy!



 No place to plug-in? Just get out the trusty soldering iron...
