3D snowflake arm to print and cut by hand SVG
The slit square as a drawing for scissors or a craft knife: cut along every line inside the square and stop where the lines stop, so each nested square stays joined at two corners. Print six on 100 gsm paper, 150 mm square or larger, then roll, tape and join them.

Will it cut at your size?
Scaling a design scales its thinnest part too. Here is this one at seven sizes, from 1 to 12 inches on its longer side, with how many copies fit a 12 × 12 inch sheet or mat.
| Size, width × height | Narrowest part | Cut length | Fit on a 12 in sheet | Rule of thumb |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × 1 in (25 × 25 mm) | 0.33 mm | 490 mm | 100 | Too fine for most machines |
| 2 × 2 in (51 × 51 mm) | 0.66 mm | 979 mm | 25 | Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care |
| 3 × 3 in (76 × 76 mm) | 0.99 mm | 1,469 mm | 9 | Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care |
| 4 × 4 in (102 × 102 mm) | 1.3 mm | 1,959 mm | 4 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 6 × 6 in (152 × 152 mm) | 2 mm | 2,938 mm | 1 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 8 × 8 in (203 × 203 mm) | 2.6 mm | 3,918 mm | 1 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 12 × 12 in (305 × 305 mm) | 4 mm | 5,877 mm | 1 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
The narrowest part is the thinnest neck that holds the design together; sharp tips are not counted. For wood and acrylic, keep it at least as wide as the sheet is thick. How to open the file in Cricut, Silhouette and laser software.
