Cutting it fine" is a British English idiom that means to have a very tight margin or little time/space for something. It implies that something is being done with a narrow or slight margin, as if it is close to failure.
"She/He/They was cutting it fine getting to the airport this afternoon, she/he/they got to the airport gate just minutes before her/his/their flight, leaving very little time to spare."
