Just wondering if there is anything you do not like about this hobby.
For me it is a few things like dropping tiny parts on the floor where they just vanish. A couple others include burning myself while soldering and getting covered with paint espiecally when I figure out it was not the color I wanted. :lol_hitting:
OOPS, I MEANT LEAST LIKE, NOT LEATS LIKE.

I can guarantee you that scenery is going to piss me off... Heck, who knows, I may just end up with plywood, track, and locos ;)
And you ar right, burning yourself is no fun... You should see my hands after I have sanded or polished something, they are so chopped up...

My finger tips get torn up when working with the little metal tie connectors. :ohwell:

Sometimes lots of stuff, most of the time they are my problems though.
Stuff is expensive, especially Euro models and I can't say no to nice things :)
I have found dealing with DCC-type stuff is tiresome, and requires alot of knowledge, and soldering abilities.
I wish I hadn't taken down my HO layout that would have kept me busy, but I have plans to change that.

DCC looks like a great idea, but I am not ready to tackle that just yet.
When I was playing around with my track plan before I finally decided on one I had made this really funky layout with a few turnouts and loops and what not and the loco would only run on one section. I had no idea about how tricky wiring could be. :D
I want to make some buildings with lights in them but am scraced of what that will entail. :eek: :laugh:
I don't realy hate anything about this hobby and it is true the the things like burning myself are my own stupid fault.

The cost of DCC for one. Um not much else although I tend to suck at painting so i just don't bother. Hmmm, Not much of anything I don't like to be honest :D
