Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for plastics.Utilize carbide-tipped saw blades or laser cutters specifically designed for polycarbonate to prevent chipping and cracking.
Over-tightening fasteners, leading to stress concentrations.Employ washers and ensure fasteners are snug but not excessively tight. Leave a small amount of clearance for thermal expansion.
