Building tiny houses

0:41

homeless,

0:41

so I started making them tables and

0:43

chairs.

0:45

I started picking up little fragments of

0:47

splinter and slicing them and

0:49

constructing and building little houses.

0:51

I'm autistic and in school [music] they

0:53

didn't really care. I call it a learning

0:55

difference. I just learn different to

0:56

anybody else. I started experimenting to

0:59

see how small I could really go.

1:01

How do you make something so beautiful?

1:04

When I'm working on a microscopic level,

1:06

I have to work between my heartbeat

1:07

because if I don't, the pulse in my

1:10

finger will cause problems. But the

1:12

tools are very important because they

1:13

all vary. There's all different types of

1:15

tools. The cutting is the most important

1:17

thing, slicing and twisting and bending

1:20

and manipulating. [music] I use a little

1:21

broken shard of diamond, smashed and

1:24

it's like a little splinter.
