Brigg inside a pocket flashlight lamp:
A truly small model is this brigg, built inside a pocket flashlight lamp. The challenge here is to find the adequate paper for the sails (i.e. Japan silk paper). A trick is played by static electricity. If the paper is charged, it will have the tendency to fly from the mast to stick to the glass. Funny! The rigging was cut to size before mounting, and it is mono-filament nylon.
