| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using inadequate cutting tools for the sheet thickness. | Employ high-speed steel or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically designed for thick stainless steel to prevent tool wear and ensure clean cuts. |
| Insufficient clamping leading to vibration during machining. | Utilize robust clamping fixtures to firmly secure the sheet, minimizing vibration and improving the precision of cuts and finishes. |
