Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard metal cutting tools which can cause cracking.Utilize specialized plastic cutting tools such as a fine-tooth saw or a router with a specific plastic bit for clean, precise cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress and potential cracking of the polycarbonate.Employ washers and avoid excessive torque when fastening. Consider pre-drilling holes with an appropriate size bit to accommodate thermal expansion.
