Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a blade not suitable for brass.Employ a carbide-tipped or bi-metal blade recommended for cutting brass to prevent blade damage and ensure a clean cut.
Insufficient clamping leading to vibration.Securely clamp the sheet on all sides of the intended cut to minimize vibration, which can result in rough edges and inaccurate dimensions.
