Actually, it’s a really good way to show how good your manufacturing is. Depending on how “functional” the miniature tools are.
I think they’re average. Almost too big.

r/Tools would like this. They often have a “small tool” thread going
What are these tools for ants?
Are they cast? Thats mighty impressive, with barely any flash and fully formed in the thin parts. May be a vacuum cast.
I want this
New Monopoly pieces just dropped. I’m playing as the pliers.
The new, G.I. Joe needs to fix a drain set!

Adam Savage did a segment on Tested! https://youtu.be/nKPPuLFWIuo?si=MAXiVyr01wWd66h9
If they work take my money, it’s very nice having the tool for the job whether you need it a lot or rarely. Better to have it and not need it than it is to need it and not have it.

What is this? Tools for ants?
How functional do you reckon the micrometer is?
that’s so dope.
Guaranteed they work. This is a company ‘president’ putting a man on the moon because they can. Probably has a really shitty website.
This image hurts my brain, all I see is a really large finger
What is the uncertainty on this calliper ? I can’t read, too small…
It makes me want to play Monopoly.
One day the tools come in handy.
the broken handle top left is bugging me more than it should. lol
This set is really cool
The British Victorian tool, knife, and sword makers did this, too. There are antique handmade folding knives the size of grains of rice.
Many years ago i started as an apprentice gunsmith in the UK. One of the tests to be considered qualified was making fully working miniature guns. it is a test of skill and precision.
Iv got about every non specialty tool I need so Ive turned my attention to getting the largest and smallest versions of my favorites and this would be perfect.
Prefect size for gacha machines!
Omg, I want!!
How do we know your not a giant?
Wow they’re bigger than mine! 😲
*Admiral General Aladeen approved.*
Can you give these to the monkey sharpening his blade on video.

Knipex will sell those pliers for $150
I read about an American company who manufactured the world’s thinnest drill bit. Competitors in Germany got ahold of onez then sent it back to the Americans with a hole drilled through it.
My brain thinks it says “hello Peter” even thought it’s not even close
You think this is impressive?
About thirty years ago an Arab woman told me that Japanese and Germans once competing in fine industry,one of them sent the other a metal wire thinner than human hair, the others sent it back with holes in it.
I need some of those to upgrade my Clue board game!
“Miss Scarlet in the conservatory with the micrometer”
Is this a screen grab from the Tested video Adam Savage made about them?
Imagine trying to read that micrometer
I need dis.
And you choose to highlight the least impressive 👍
