| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel cutting tools without proper lubrication, leading to premature tool wear and poor cut quality. | Employ specialized carbide-tipped blades or abrasive wheels designed for stainless steel, and always use a cutting fluid to dissipate heat and lubricate the cut. |
| Inadequate support of the sheet during cutting, resulting in vibration, uneven cuts, and potential material deformation. | Ensure the sheet is firmly supported on a stable cutting surface or jig, with support points close to the cutting line to minimize flex. |
