| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not designed for stainless steel. | Employ carbide-tipped or high-speed steel cutting tools with adequate lubrication to prevent excessive heat buildup and tool wear. |
| Inadequate surface preparation before welding or joining. | Ensure all surfaces are meticulously cleaned and free of any contaminants (grease, oils, oxides) to achieve strong, corrosion-resistant welds. |
