| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not rated for thicker aluminum, leading to poor edge quality or tool damage. | Employ high-speed steel (HSS) or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum, and ensure proper feed rates and lubrication. |
| Improper grounding or bonding of fabricated components, compromising electrical safety. | Utilize appropriate fasteners, conductive pastes, or welding techniques to ensure robust electrical continuity and grounding of all assembled parts. |
