| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or drilling. | Employ specialized carbide or high-speed steel tooling designed for stainless steel to prevent galling and ensure clean cuts. |
| Not accounting for potential work hardening during fabrication. | Implement slower speeds and heavier feeds when machining to minimize excessive heat buildup and work hardening, ensuring easier subsequent operations. |
