Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for metal.Utilize metal-specific cutting blades (e.g., bi-metal hacksaw blades, abrasive cut-off wheels) to prevent tool damage and ensure clean cuts.
Failing to deburr cut edges.Always use a deburring tool or file to remove sharp edges, improving safety and the quality of subsequent operations.

Common Applications
