What is your pet hate/weakness when it comes to building a layout?

[Newportnobby]

OK, so this also applies to any gauge really but I've put electrics first as I believe a large percentage of us have a weakness in that area. This particularly applies to me but I think I'm fairly good with track planning and laying track. I enjoy ballasting but have not done anything round points yet Scenics I'm fine with as shaky hands doesn't limit me like it does in other areas.
You can vote for any three of the 7 I've mooted.
It's a bit of fun but some very helpful posts (and even tutorials) may come of it

Indecisiveness and procrastination.

Indecisiveness and procrastination.

But is that particular to model railways?

[crewearpley40]

Just cannot get to grips with electrics

[Dorsetmike]

Advancing age is my main problem, manifesting itself currently as poor hand/eye coordination, especially when trying to fit Peco rail joiners and similar sight dependant actions.

Indecisiveness and procrastination.

I don't think I have that problem. But I'll give it some more thought... later

[The Q]

Weakness no, but 48 years working in electronics,

So that's why I ticked that box... just no enthusiasm for it any more.

I like scenery, and scratch building.

[Bealman]

After 10 years of whinging and whining on this forum, I don't think I even needed to tick the box!

In the absence of an "indecisiveness and procrastination" button, I just picked track laying. Not because it's hard, just because I haven't got beyond six baseboards with track on one for the last four years.

I thoroughly dislike ballasting and am not keen on scratchbuilding buildings. So those have been voted for.

Mick @Newportnobby , you have a missing option on your voting list "None of the above" for those clever all round modellers

@Nbodger Mike - I just assumed clever all round modellers wouldn't be reading this thread

Ballasting, or rather lack of, is my weakness. I'm sieving my own blend at the moment after trying different brands and colours.
Also, building DC controllers. There is usually 1 in the process of being built.
Unlike ballasting, the controllers get finished and tested.
