| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can lead to galling and work hardening. | Utilize specialized carbide or high-speed steel tooling designed for stainless steel, along with appropriate lubrication. |
| Insufficient support during machining operations, leading to vibration and inaccurate cuts. | Ensure the stock sheet is firmly clamped and adequately supported across its entire surface during all machining processes. |
