| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard steel cutting tools without proper adjustments. | Employ specialized carbide-tipped or high-speed steel cutting tools designed for aluminum, and ensure adequate lubrication and feed rates to prevent galling and overheating. |
| Improper welding techniques leading to reduced joint strength. | Utilize TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler metals (e.g., 4043 or 5356) and pre/post-weld heat treatments to maintain optimal mechanical properties in the heat-affected zone. |
