I saw a 60s doc on someone who did tiny origami for a career! And I thought I’d try it myself, even though I have made smaller origami. The latter was with tweezers, and didn’t look great as it wasn’t supposed to, having been a test for Japanese potential surgery med students. Man, I mean talk about having confidence in your surgeons if they were able to fold a paper crane out of 1 cm square paper! At that small size, paper thickness relative to size becomes a factor because it doesn’t get 15X thinner just because you use paper 15X smaller in a square side, and 225X smaller in surface area!

How do you think I did? I have no intention of trying the crack the market to make a career, or even money, out of it, though.
