I'm developing a program for CNC routing as well as 3D printing. I needed an easy to visualize square and rulers for my students to use on the CNC. I found that students have a hard time telling the difference between 1/8", 1/4" & 1/2", so I added different gradients to this to show each scale. The color scale goes from 1/8th, 1/4 and 1/2". The squares are 7" x 7" with a penny for reference. The three 6" rulers also have the gradient scales and penny for visual reference. The second page has

This 190 mm x 250 mm printable square is great for visualizing the size of larger designs for CNC & 3D printing. The color scale helps with visualizing the size of cm. The coins are to scale (Quarter is 24.26 mm, Penny is 19.05 mm, Dime is 17.91 mm) and he
