| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard carbon steel tools for cutting or grinding, leading to contamination and potential corrosion points. | Employ dedicated stainless steel cutting tools and ensure all equipment is meticulously cleaned before use. |
| Inadequate edge preparation before welding, resulting in porosity or incomplete fusion. | Thoroughly clean and bevel edges to the recommended angle for optimal weld penetration and integrity. |
