| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools without proper speed and feed settings for aluminum. | Employ specialized carbide or HSS tooling designed for aluminum, with appropriate speeds and feeds to prevent galling and ensure clean cuts. |
| Inadequate support during machining, leading to vibration and poor tolerances. | Utilize robust clamping and fixturing to firmly support the sheet during all machining operations, minimizing flex and ensuring accuracy. |
