| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard steel cutting tools without proper cooling, leading to material warping. | Employ specialized carbide or high-speed steel cutting tools designed for aluminum, along with a coolant or lubricant to manage heat. |
| 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. |
