BTW, what gets the vote for the most frightening DIY appliance. I
think my vote must go to chain saws, closely followed by hedge
trimmers.

Most scary chainsaw. Most dangerous stanley knife. High powered
nailguns must be up there somewhere as well, you know the things
that'll drive a 4" nail into solid concrete.

I vote for
Hammer - the item that has hurt me the most
Mini Digger - the item that scares me the most when using it

All types of small power tool are given great respect, so are less
lilkley to damage me. The mini digger is hired, so as you pay by the
day to have it, you use it 15 hours a day, in any weather.
