| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools which can lead to burring and material deformation. | Employ sharp, specialized aluminum cutting tools (e.g., carbide-tipped blades) and maintain proper feed rates to ensure clean cuts. |
| Improper welding techniques that can compromise the alloy's strength. | Clean the surface thoroughly before welding and use appropriate filler metals (e.g., 4043 or 5356) with inert gas shielding (e.g., Argon) for optimal weld integrity. |
