| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools leading to rough edges and material stress. | Employ abrasive cut-off wheels or specialized metal saws designed for stainless steel, and ensure proper blade selection for clean cuts. |
| Inadequate fastening or welding, compromising the structural integrity of the bracing. | Utilize fasteners specifically rated for stainless steel and high shear loads. Employ TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler material for 304 stainless steel, ensuring proper penetration and bead quality. |
