How fine is it at your size?

Scaling a design scales its finest detail 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	Smallest mark	Cut length	Fit on a 12 in sheet	Rule of thumb
1 × 0.64 in (25 × 16 mm)	0.28 mm	493 mm	140	Too fine for most machines
2 × 1.29 in (51 × 33 mm)	0.56 mm	986 mm	40	Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care
3 × 1.93 in (76 × 49 mm)	0.84 mm	1,478 mm	15	Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care
4 × 2.57 in (102 × 65 mm)	1.1 mm	1,971 mm	8	Vinyl, card and thin sheet
6 × 3.86 in (152 × 98 mm)	1.7 mm	2,957 mm	3	Vinyl, card and thin sheet
8 × 5.14 in (203 × 131 mm)	2.2 mm	3,942 mm	2	Vinyl, card and thin sheet
12 × 7.72 in (305 × 196 mm)	3.4 mm	5,913 mm	1	Any material, including 3 mm wood and acrylic

The smallest mark is the finest detail in the pattern. Below about half a millimetre it is too small to cut and may fill in when printed. How to open the file in Cricut, Silhouette and laser software.
