What are the ways to cut a roll of fabric? (diolen)
I want to pre cut it to strips so save time

Is there a cheap way to do so?
Also, do Easy composites offer this kind of service?

Are you talking across the roll or cutting it width ways?  Just use shears normally.  To cut it on the roll would probably be difficult to do without some kind of slitting machine that can roll off the roll, cut and roll back on to another roll.  Its not a service we offer.

Really? I couldn't find any on google
Is it possible for you to share with me (DM) or is it problematic? 

Thanks!

You can likely just use a bandsaw although the cut would be a little rough compared to a proper slitting maching.

I imagine a disaster with binding and bandsaw flying around
Or its not like kevlar?

It cuts like Kevlar albeit not quite as difficult. 

You don't see that many twill format narrow tapes as a plain weave is much easier to manufacture.  Many of the twill formats are woven as a braid, be it flat or tubular.
