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 × 0.46 in (25 × 12 mm) | 0.81 mm | 129 mm | 180 | Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care |
| 2 × 0.92 in (51 × 23 mm) | 1.6 mm | 257 mm | 50 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 3 × 1.37 in (76 × 35 mm) | 2.4 mm | 386 mm | 21 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 4 × 1.83 in (102 × 47 mm) | 3.3 mm | 514 mm | 12 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
| 6 × 2.75 in (152 × 70 mm) | 4.9 mm | 771 mm | 4 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
| 8 × 3.66 in (203 × 93 mm) | 6.5 mm | 1,028 mm | 3 | Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic |
| 12 × 5.5 in (305 × 140 mm) | 9.8 mm | 1,542 mm | 2 | 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.
