Cut tyvek roll for reduced width

[Tundra1]

Hi all,
I'm getting close to a point of wrapping my 36x60 12'6"h shop. Tyvek is common in 9x150 rolls and some 3' option. But I'm thinking most efficient will be cut a 9' roll to work better with the 12'6. So would use 9' + 4' and get 6" overlap.
Is this possible to cut a whole roll down with conventional saws? Or will I just end up with a giant ball of Teflon strings and scrap.
Is there a preferred method to apply housewrap when the widths don't add up perfectly?
Thanks!

Can't answer all your questions, but it can be cut with a circular saw.

HD and lots of places have it in 9s and 5s. Seems that is a better answer than cutting a roll. And you won’t have a cut off left over.

We do it all the time with a regular skill saw.

Thanks! Any tricks to it? I was thinking maybe I would wrap in masking tape and cut through middle of tape.

Wrap cut with tape, Skil saw or saws-all with metal blade. Easy.

Unless there's a massive savings I would get 9' and 5' and be done.

Using Zip would have saved this step.

Thanks, I appreciate all the feedback. I will double check but HD was out of tyvek stock and Lowe's only had 9' and 3' when I was looking.

Yep, fire up the time machine.

When you "are one" with a skillsaw because you make hundreds of cuts a day in any applicable material or situation there's little thought process to mention a tip.
Just fully support the roll, have a firm grip on the saw and simply watch the shoe of the saw for square to the roll. If you're good you can roll and cut in one motion and consider yourself lucky if you meet up with the beginning of the cut exactly.
A chop saw will do it perfectly providing the roll is supported.
