| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard steel cutting tools without proper adjustments. | Employ carbide-tipped or high-speed steel tooling with optimized feed rates and speeds for aluminum to prevent heat buildup and tool wear. |
| Overheating during welding, leading to loss of mechanical properties. | Utilize proper welding procedures for 6061, such as TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler materials (e.g., 4043 or 5356), and control heat input to minimize annealing. |
