Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for thicker aluminum.Employ carbide-tipped blades or specialized aluminum cutting saw blades for clean, efficient cuts.
Ignoring proper support during cutting, leading to vibration and inaccurate cuts.Ensure the stock sheet is securely supported on both sides of the cutting line to minimize vibration.
