| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not designed for aluminum, leading to poor edge quality and tool wear. | Employ carbide-tipped or specialized aluminum cutting tools with appropriate speeds and feeds to achieve clean cuts and extend tool life. |
| Inadequate surface preparation before welding, resulting in porosity and weak joints. | Thoroughly clean the weld area with a stainless steel brush and appropriate solvent to remove oxides and contaminants prior to welding. |
