| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting speeds or tool geometry for thick stainless steel. | Consult machining data for 304 stainless steel of this gauge and utilize carbide tooling with appropriate rake and clearance angles. |
| Inadequate preparation of edges before welding, leading to porosity. | Thoroughly clean and bevel edges to be welded, removing any mill scale or contamination prior to arc initiation. |
