| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Improper cutting tool selection leading to ragged edges or material deformation. | Select a cutting tool specifically designed for aluminum sheet to ensure clean cuts and maintain material integrity. |
| Failure to account for material expansion/contraction during thermal processes. | Allow for material movement in designs and fabrication processes, especially when welding or heating the aluminum. |
