Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard metal fasteners without proper washers.Utilize pan-head screws with neoprene or EPDM washers to distribute load and prevent stress concentration.
Cutting with a blade that generates excessive heat.Employ a fine-tooth saw blade designed for plastics, and use coolant if necessary to prevent melting or chipping.
