A die can start crooked when the rod end is not chamfered, the die is not square or the setup is unstable.

Leaks may come from the wrong pipe standard, insufficient engagement, damaged threads or poor cleaning.

Breakage often follows excessive engagement, a weak setup, wrong tool geometry or chip evacuation problems.

End mill chatter is influenced by rigidity, overhang, flute count, radial engagement and cutting conditions.

Vibration often comes from excessive overhang, a bent shank, high side pressure or unstable workholding.

Aluminum can pack into a burr when the cut, speed, edge condition or lubrication is not suited to non-ferrous material.

Reamer chatter usually comes from instability, too much overhang, poor alignment or incorrect cutting conditions.

An oversize reamed hole can come from excessive allowance, runout, poor alignment, speed or a worn reamer.

Oversizing can result from excessive pressure, poor alignment, tool runout or a countersink selected for the wrong fastener.

Chatter comes from overhang, unstable workholding, excessive feed, a dull tool or an angle mismatch.
