| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard steel cutting tools, which can lead to poor edge quality and tool wear. | Employ specialized carbide-tipped blades or end mills designed for aluminum to ensure clean cuts and prolong tool life. |
| Overheating during welding, which can compromise the alloy's heat-treated properties. | Maintain proper heat input control and consider using filler metals compatible with 6061 aluminum to preserve its mechanical integrity. |
