In a world of Giants, tiny still rocks!

I’ve always been a sucker for scale models and really dig making small replicas of big things. I know, sounds a bit geeky, but sometimes there are things that come along which just need to be made public.

In this case it’s a few items on the Makers Market (the sell through site the creative people who read Make Magazine) which we shouldn’t really spend as much time looking through as we do. There is a store on there called “Everything tiny” which has a set of itsy-bitsy-teeny-weeny stuff. Mainly dinosaurs, but as you see the picture above shows how you can display tiny origami cranes with their special kit for only $16!

Once again it’s another laser cut related item (seeing a common thread starting here) which we are talking about, but for good reason. If you take the late night mouse to Clickyville on the picture above you will get to see the other items which they sell there.

Everybody says well done Kellbot, these are wonderful little creations that we need to create our tiny desktop natural history museum… now does anyone know where we can get 1:500 scale stuffed Giraffe to start our new “African Savannah” exhibition hall?
