I wanted a larger shape and was able to get 1.45 with the same count as the 1 inch. When going to 1.5 it cut the count down considerably. Today I will try and figure out what size of a square I need.

Are there any math wizard out there.
If an one inch sided hexagon needs a 2.5 square ,,, then what size square would work for my 1.45 inch sided haexagon?
