| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to poor edge quality or material damage. | Employ high-speed steel or carbide tooling specifically designed for aluminum machining. Maintain proper coolant application to dissipate heat. |
| Ignoring the directional grain of the aluminum during fabrication, potentially weakening the final component. | Understand the rolling direction of the sheet and orient cutouts or stressed areas to leverage the material's strength optimally. |
