Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate.Utilize fine-tooth saw blades or laser cutters specifically designed for plastics to achieve clean, crack-free cuts.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress fractures.Employ washers and avoid excessive torque when fastening. Allow for thermal expansion and contraction.
