In my experience, small parts are not more or less accurate. That is because the Maslow has shown excellent repeatability and is thus [very precise](https://forums.maslowcnc.com/t/accuracy-issues/5855).

There are several sources of errors that you can control:  
a) [frame and sled stiffness](https://forums.maslowcnc.com/t/lines-in-zig-zag/7533/21)  
b) warping of the workspace area due to [12 O’clock](https://forums.maslowcnc.com/t/set-your-12-oclock-position-with-a-level-because/8445) and [other machine details](https://forums.maslowcnc.com/t/most-critical-measured-dimensions/4263/3)  
c) [router bit retroaction forces](https://forums.maslowcnc.com/t/maslow-accuracy-simplification-proposal/8650/3)

You might want to look at the [zipper three challenge](https://forums.maslowcnc.com/t/the-zipper-tree-challenge-because/8455) and follow thread links to see how to improve your Malsow setup.
