The object in question is just a simple, traditional crane. Just make a tiny one, upload a pic for proof, and give the dimensions.

its resting on an American nickel. its about 5 mm tip-to-tip
EDIT:
Sorry, forgot about non-native English speakers. Sans means without

I think that the reason not many people join is that no one except yo guys can fold things that small!

This is a few months old (I think I know its relative location in terms of the room I think it's in). I could probably try smaller, it's just tough for me to make a square that small.

Just cut a small piece from the note pad in my desk. It is not really tiny. check the scale bar, the crane is about 4mm.
