Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools leading to jagged edges or material deformation.Employ specialized metal shears, band saws with appropriate blades, or laser cutters designed for sheet metal fabrication.
Applying excessive force during bending or forming, causing stress fractures or unwanted thinning of the material.Utilize proper bending techniques and tools, such as press brakes or mandrels, ensuring gradual, controlled deformation within the material's limits.
