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 × 0.86 in (25 × 22 mm)	0.56 mm	237 mm	110	Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care
2 × 1.72 in (51 × 44 mm)	1.1 mm	473 mm	30	Vinyl, card and thin sheet
3 × 2.58 in (76 × 65 mm)	1.7 mm	710 mm	12	Vinyl, card and thin sheet
4 × 3.44 in (102 × 87 mm)	2.2 mm	947 mm	6	Vinyl, card and thin sheet
6 × 5.15 in (152 × 131 mm)	3.4 mm	1,420 mm	2	Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic
8 × 6.87 in (203 × 175 mm)	4.5 mm	1,894 mm	1	Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic
12 × 10.31 in (305 × 262 mm)	6.7 mm	2,841 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.
