| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not designed for aluminum, leading to poor edge finish and tool damage. | Employ specialized carbide-tipped saw blades or router bits designed for aluminum cutting to achieve clean cuts and prolong tool life. |
| Inadequate consideration of thermal expansion during design, leading to component stress or failure. | Factor in the coefficient of thermal expansion of Aluminum 6061 when designing assemblies that undergo significant temperature fluctuations, allowing for expansion joints or flexible mounting. |
