You might have to squint to witness this ridiculously tiny, functional screen printing press by artist Devin Smith in action. In a video posted by The Daily Miniature, the bite-sized replica sticks a mini pine tree onto a t-shirt so small it would make a hamster look fat.Smith, who goes by the moniker awesome___thanks, has been making miniatures since Legos stopped being able to satisfy his imagination as a child. He made his first miniature from scratch in high school and was hooked. "I enjoy making something that I have created in my own mind," he tells The Daily Miniature. "Something that isn’t completely real, but it could be. I like those kinds of miniatures because as I go along, I can add whatever my imagination feels fits in that particular scene. I don’t have to play by the books, the miniature can be whatever I want it to be and that’s my favorite way."A video posted by The Daily Miniature (@dailymini) on
