| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Improper cutting tool selection leading to burrs or material deformation. | Employ cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum alloys, such as carbide-tipped blades or specialized aluminum cutting discs. Maintain appropriate feed rates and cooling to prevent overheating and ensure clean cuts. |
| Over-stressing the material during forming or bending operations. | Consult alloy temper specifications for 6061-T6 (common temper for stock sheet) to understand minimum bend radii. Consider pre-heating for complex bends if necessary, though often not required for standard forming. |
