| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools for aluminum, leading to poor edge quality. | Employ sharp, high-speed steel or carbide tooling specifically designed for aluminum machining. |
| Improper welding techniques on 6061, resulting in reduced strength or cracking. | Utilize TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler metals (e.g., 4043 or 5356) and pre/post-weld heat treatments if necessary. |
