| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not designed for aluminum, leading to poor cut quality and tool damage. | Employ carbide-tipped blades or specialized aluminum cutting bits with appropriate speeds and feeds. |
| Inadequate heat management during welding, causing localized weakening or cracking. | Utilize TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler metals (e.g., 4043 or 5356) and pre/post-weld heat treatment if required for the specific application. |
