Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate cutting tools leading to burrs or uneven edges.Utilize sharp, appropriate cutting tools designed for metal fabrication and ensure proper technique for clean cuts.
Failing to account for material expansion/contraction during fabrication processes.Consider thermal properties of brass and incorporate appropriate allowances in design and fabrication to mitigate dimensional changes.
