| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using improper cutting tools that can lead to work hardening or burrs. | Utilize carbide-tipped or high-speed steel cutting tools designed for stainless steel, maintaining appropriate speeds and feeds to prevent excessive heat buildup and material deformation. |
| Inadequate cleaning before welding, resulting in surface contamination and compromised weld quality. | Thoroughly degrease and remove any oxides or scale from the weld area using stainless steel brushes or solvents to ensure a clean, high-integrity weld. |
