| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not designed for thick stainless steel, leading to poor edge quality and tool damage. | Employ specialized carbide-tipped or diamond-coated cutting blades and ensure adequate lubrication to achieve clean, precise cuts. |
| Improper welding practices that can lead to sensitization and reduced corrosion resistance in the heat-affected zone. | Employ appropriate welding procedures such as TIG or MIG with filler metals compatible with 304 stainless steel, and maintain interpass temperatures within recommended limits. |
