The Origami Forum

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...

look at my gallery on my website. you'll see my crane compared to a penny.

1.2 cm by 1.2 cm paper
crane is about 1 cm from wing tip to wing tip

here is the link compared to a penny a traditional normal sized crane and the paper i used to fold it (no tools)

Sitting on a dime.

Made using a 1 cm square.

The smallest I have achieved: folded from 1x1cm square, here in comparison to a 1ct euro coin

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