Cutting Canopy Material

I have been looking for a good way to trim canopies - especially in 30 and 40 thousands material. I tried scissors and dremel tools and I have found the best item I have tried yet. Farberware makes a heavy duty pair of scissors they call SHEARS. Mine came from Wally World. Probably can be used for other heavy cutting as well but trims a canopy smoothly. The finger thumb holes didn't fit me as well as I would have liked but that was a minor thing.

Bill go to your LHS and buy a pair of scissors that are made for cutting Lexan car bodies. These scissors are curved and will give you a nice clean continuous cut. Cost is $8-$10.00. Dennis

Dennis,

You beat me to it. These scissors are great! I haven't botched a canopy since I bought them.
