| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not rated for 0.505" aluminum, leading to poor cut quality. | Employ high-speed steel blades or carbide-tipped saws specifically designed for cutting thick aluminum alloys. |
| Ignoring material expansion/contraction during thermal processing, causing dimensional inaccuracies. | Account for thermal expansion in your design and cutting processes, especially if welding or significant heat is involved. |
