How small can you fold the traditional crane?
I made a crane from a 2cm square of foil (see my gallery thread) and I wondered how small folks can fold it? I expect that some of the younger members, with smaller and nimbler fingers than mine, can make it smaller...

I recently discovered this guy on flickr:

Although not the traditional crane he folds some really complex models, but then the size of a coin. Really amazing!
