| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not designed for stainless steel, leading to tool wear and poor cut quality. | Employ carbide-tipped or high-speed steel cutting blades specifically rated for stainless steel to ensure clean, efficient cuts and prolong tool life. |
| Inadequate surface preparation before welding, resulting in weld contamination and reduced corrosion resistance. | Thoroughly clean the weld area with stainless steel brushes and degreasers to remove any oils, dirt, or oxides. Use inert gas shielding (e.g., Argon) during welding. |
