On a number line you have 0 then 1, and all the other integers. 0 and 1 together are a finite set. However, this finite set has an infinite number of fractions contained between them. Infinite number in a finite set.
Our universe may be finite to us, but if a black hole contains our universe and our universe contains other black holes that contain other universes, that contain black holes. It could be black hole universes all the way down. So we are finite but contain infinite.
As far as drawing an infinite number of 1mm lines, I can tell you it takes a very long time, especially near the end.
