Carbon-fiber will be used throughout the chassis of a new high-performance version the Lamborghini called the Murcielago Strada. Motorauthority.com said:

The Strada model is designed in the style of the race-spec Murcielago R-GT, and carbon-fiber is used extensively throughout the chassis to lighten the car - in fact, the front splitter, rear diffuser and rear wing are all manufactured from the advanced composite material.

Inside, Reiter Engineering has decked out the car with Alcantara and leather trim and custom designed sports bucket seats. Its designers claim the Strada features a look that more echoes a theme of "sporting elegance" compared to its brash sibling, the Murcielago R-GT.

Sharpening scissors and shears

Twice As Sharp® scissors sharpening system

Proper sharpening of scissors and shears for hard to
cut materials is critical. Different fabric weaves and characteristics sometimes require changing the cutting angle of the scissors. At times you may find that one blade corrugated or both blades corrugated are needed to keep the materials spread out as they are cut. These angles are accomplished using the Twice As Sharp® scissors sharpener. Corrugations, teeth on the blade(s) are done using the manual corrugator or the new Wolff Corru-Gator.
