Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using incorrect cutting tools, leading to material deformation or uneven edges.Employ sharp, specialized tools designed for cutting sheet metal, such as metal shears or a band saw with a fine-tooth blade.
Inadequate surface preparation before machining or joining, resulting in poor adhesion or finish.Thoroughly clean the brass surface with a degreaser and fine-grit sandpaper to remove any oils, oxides, or contaminants.

Common Applications
