| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard cutting tools not designed for aluminum, leading to poor finish and tool damage. | Utilize carbide-tipped or high-speed steel cutting tools specifically recommended for aluminum machining to achieve a clean cut and extend tool life. |
| Improper welding techniques for 6061 aluminum, resulting in weakened joints. | Employ TIG or MIG welding with appropriate filler materials (e.g., 4043 or 5356) and controlled heat input to maintain joint integrity and prevent cracking. |
