Default What is the smallest size wood that can be called wood working?

Hi All

I just had to ask.

What is the smallest size wood you can use and still have it called
wood working?

My example photo is in the woodworking binaries newsgroup.

Somewhere I think I've got a set of 1/87th-scale 2x4s I bought at the
hobby shop....

I guess if Toothpicks would still qualify as Woodworking, Match Sticks
certainly would.

Actually, as you probably guessed, I just wanted to show off my match
stick Steam Boat project. 8

Hey JOAT

I think I'll stick to match sticks. At least I can still see them in
my retirement years.

Building a house or something large would be a good challenge with
something like that.

Well, I did see a turned goblet that was about 1/2 inch high, hollowed
, and with a bead on the stem.
