Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate cutting tools for the material thickness.Employ high-quality, hardened cutting blades or abrasive wheels designed for thick carbon steel to prevent tool damage and ensure clean cuts.
Neglecting proper material handling and storage, leading to warping or damage.Store the sheet on a flat, level surface, supported evenly to prevent deformation. Handle with care using appropriate lifting equipment.
