| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools without proper precautions. | Employ high-speed steel or carbide tooling specifically designed for stainless steel to prevent contamination and ensure clean cuts. |
| Inadequate post-fabrication cleaning, leaving behind residues. | Thoroughly clean all fabricated surfaces with a non-abrasive cleaner and water to remove any fabrication byproducts and maintain the passive oxide layer. |
