How to resize a svg file to fit grid in carbide create

Looking for a tutorial on making a cribbage board for two player with a marine emblem in the center.

Does this help as a starting point ?

Designing a cribbage board

A traditional design for a cribbage board is to have a top and a bottom where the lower portion hinges away from the upper to reveal storage areas for cards and pegs. Start by either finding or drawing up a board. We’ll use: [Cribbage_Board] from: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Cribbage_Board.svg

I wrote up some notes on cribbage boards at the link @Julien provided, but it doesn’t have an open area for the design (run down the METAPOST source and modify it?)

For a Marine EGA see:

Creating designs from elements

If one has a design idea one wants to make, usually it can be shown / mocked up as a pixel image, and put together using some basic elements. For example: [image2] All one should need for that is a portion of a U.S. flag, and the Marine Corps seal — fortunately, both are easily sourced on Wikimedia Commons: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/a/a4/Flag_of_the_United_States.svg https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b3/Seal_of_the_United_States_Marine_Corps.svg

I’ll see if I can work up a parametric cribbage board design which will work with Carbide Create.

I think I am getting in over my head with a cribbage board to start. Will do some signs till I get used to it more. Thanks
