What is the best way to cut the fiberglass sheathing to keep it from
unraveling? I tried sticking it into the flame on the gas kitchen stove
and it burns down a bit that way....

I pasted the sheath of a thermocouple with wood stove cement (sodium
silicate) to keep it from unraveling. It worked until I overheated the
fiberglass and made it brittle.
