Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for thicker metals.Employ industrial-grade cutting equipment suitable for 0.409" brass to ensure clean, precise cuts and prevent tool damage.
Failing to account for thermal expansion during fabrication.Allow for appropriate tolerances in designs and fabrication processes to accommodate the brass's expansion and contraction with temperature changes.
