If you're scared or unsure about working with Dyneema Composite Fabric, that's OK - we're here to help! There are a few common misconceptions about working with DCF, including but not limited to:

1) You need special scissors or equipment to cut it

2) It's hard to sew, tape, bond, etc

Fortunately, neither of these is true. DCF is actually quite easy to work with compared to some other materials. It's also especially forgiving when you make a mistake since it can be quickly repaired with pressure sensitive tape.
