| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not designed for thick aluminum. | Utilize specialized carbide-tipped saw blades with appropriate tooth geometry and coolant for efficient and clean cuts. |
| Ignoring potential for work hardening during machining. | Employ moderate cutting speeds and feed rates, along with liberal use of cutting fluid, to mitigate excessive heat buildup and work hardening. |
