| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using incorrect cutting tools for aluminum, leading to burrs or poor edge quality. | Employ sharp, high-speed steel or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically designed for aluminum alloys. |
| Overheating the material during welding or forming, which can compromise its heat-treated properties. | Utilize appropriate welding techniques (e.g., TIG welding with 5356 filler rod) and controlled heat input, or cold forming methods where possible. |
