| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or grinding, leading to contamination and potential rust spots. | Always use dedicated stainless steel cutting discs, files, and grinding wheels to prevent iron contamination. |
| Insufficient post-fabrication cleaning, leaving behind residues that can compromise corrosion resistance. | Thoroughly clean the fabricated part with a suitable degreaser and passivation solution after all welding and finishing operations. |
