   1. Wear It
   
   Try the shirt on, make mental notes or physical notes showing how deep you want to scoop the neck.

   2. Cut The Sleeves not The Seams
   
   Cut the sleeves off, but do not cut the seam off, cut the sleeve off. If you leave the seam it allows you to have your shirt semetrical.
   
   But if you want that cool kinda 80s asemetrical look cut the seam off. but if not, leave the seam.

   3. Scooping The Neck
   
   Depending on how deep you want the scoop to be depends siz you want to shoulder to be. The smalled the shoulders are the easier it will tie.
   
   I cut the should half in inch from the seam on both sides while i used the collar as a referrance. I followed the curve of the collar all the way to the other side.

   with 2 inches of shoulder seam you can wear it more like a normal tee
   
   with an one inch of shoulder seam you can wear it as a tank.
   
   with half an inch of shoulder seam you can wear it on or off the shoulder.

   Where your new shoulder is, cut the seam and tie it back together, and your done. Enjoy!!
