This Guy Is The Best Engraver Ever.

Graham Short etched the motto "Nothing is impossible" which measures just a tenth of a millimetre.

The letters are invisible to the naked eye, and can only be read with a medical microscope at 400 times magnification.

He was only able to work at night, when traffic vibrations are at a minimum, with his right arm bound to the arm of his chair with a luggage strap to minimise unwanted movement. He uses a stethoscope to monitor his heart, attempting a stroke of the letter only between beats, when his body is perfectly still. He swims 10,000 metres a day and can slow his heart rate to 30 beats a minute.

He worked from midnight to 5.30am most nights of the week, for seven months on his razor blade. On a good night he'd manage three minuscule letters.

Hooooleeee crap. I'd be happy with myself if I could just do the swimming thing

Maybe we should try this kinjo for our drawing and animation... WE could be the first animators to make a "millimeter" Animation!!!


Also this guy is PRO! and indeed that is quite "Filthy"

I think "millimeter" animation would be a single pixel changing colors...

What is 1 bit? Isn't that a European currency?
