| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools, leading to premature tool wear and contamination. | Employ high-speed steel or carbide-tipped tools specifically designed for stainless steel cutting. |
| Inadequate weld shielding gas, resulting in oxidation and compromised weld integrity. | Utilize a consistent flow of Argon or a suitable Argon/Helium mixture to prevent atmospheric contamination during welding. |
