| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel fasteners on stainless steel. | Always use 304 or 316 grade stainless steel fasteners to prevent galvanic corrosion and ensure joint integrity. |
| Insufficient edge preparation before welding or bending. | Thoroughly clean and deburr edges to remove any contaminants and ensure smooth transitions for fabrication processes. |
