You can still use the seam tape. Just cut the selvage off, and it will behave itself.

: I had lots of seam glass tape left over and I was going to use it. Cheap can
: be expensive. I did know about cutting glass on the bias and I learned a
: heck of a lesson the hard way. The reason I taped the glass under the deck
: was for holding strength. If I hadn't, there would only be the 1/4"
: strip edge holding the coaming at the front and rear of the deck. The
: inside radrus to be put in later would add some more holding surface. I
: have a nice pair of tailor scissors that we used for cutting fiber glass
: when I worked in the Pattern trade, but I do think I will try the fabric
: cutter on my next boat. Thanks guys.
