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 | Narrowest part | Cut length | Fit on a 12 in sheet | Rule of thumb |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 × 0.62 in (25 × 16 mm) | 0.15 mm | 672 mm | 140 | Too fine for most machines |
| 2 × 1.23 in (51 × 31 mm) | 0.3 mm | 1,344 mm | 40 | Too fine for most machines |
| 3 × 1.84 in (76 × 47 mm) | 0.46 mm | 2,015 mm | 15 | Too fine for most machines |
| 4 × 2.46 in (102 × 62 mm) | 0.61 mm | 2,687 mm | 8 | Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care |
| 6 × 3.69 in (152 × 94 mm) | 0.91 mm | 4,031 mm | 3 | Fine detail: vinyl and paper only, weed with care |
| 8 × 4.92 in (203 × 125 mm) | 1.2 mm | 5,375 mm | 2 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
| 12 × 7.38 in (305 × 187 mm) | 1.8 mm | 8,062 mm | 1 | Vinyl, card and thin sheet |
The narrowest part 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.
