| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools which can cause galling and contamination. | Employ specialized carbide or HSS cutting tools designed for stainless steel, and ensure proper lubrication. |
| Inadequate cleaning before welding, leading to reduced corrosion resistance. | Thoroughly degrease and decontaminate the weld joint and surrounding area using acetone or a dedicated stainless steel cleaner. |
