| ❌ Mistake | ✅ Correct Approach |
|---|---|
| Using standard steel cutting tools not designed for thicker gauges. | Employ industrial-grade shears, saws, or plasma cutters rated for 0.162" carbon steel to prevent tool damage and ensure clean cuts. |
| Insufficient preparation for welding or forming, leading to potential cracks or distortion. | Pre-heat the material according to welding specifications and use appropriate forming dies and techniques to manage stress and prevent material failure. |
