| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools leading to edge deformation. | Employ carbide-tipped or specialized abrasive cutting discs designed for stainless steel to maintain edge integrity. |
| Failing to account for thermal expansion during welding or assembly. | Implement appropriate welding procedures and allow for expansion gaps to prevent warping and stress. |
