Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard cutting tools not designed for polycarbonate, leading to chipping or cracking.Utilize a fine-tooth saw or a laser cutter specifically calibrated for polycarbonate to achieve clean, precise cuts.
Excessive force or improper fastener selection causing localized stress points.Employ appropriate sized fasteners with washers to distribute load evenly. Avoid drilling holes too close to edges.
