| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not rated for thick aluminum, leading to poor finish and tool damage. | Employ carbide-tipped or specialized aluminum cutting tools designed for thicker gauges to achieve optimal results and extend tool lifespan. |
| Inadequate support during welding, causing distortion on the heavy 0.975" sheet. | Utilize robust fixturing and consider heat sinks or controlled preheating to minimize thermal distortion during welding operations. |
