Hey! I don't really have much to say so I'll just get right to it. I want to invite anyone that's interested to make a 1000 paper cranes with only their less dominant hand. I've been doing this project since last week and I feel like others should try it for themselves as well. This idea started when I had the idea to try and make a paper crane with only one hand after struggling to make ugly abomination I called my artwork I wondered why someone would even dare (besides curiosity) to do a paper crane. The story idea I made up was about a man that lost his dominant hand in an accident of some sorts and while he was drinking away his sorrows, he met a man that told him to make a 1000 paper cranes and he shall get what he truly desires. After I thought of this story, I wondered how it feels like making a thousand paper cranes with one hand. The next day I tried make a crane with my left hand instead and that's really how it all began. If your interested, the rules are simple your not allowed to use your dominant hand to make the paper crane. That's it really. how you interpret that rule is really up to you and it's really based on an honor system. What I do is make, number, and open up the crane with only y left hand and if I touch my right hand(like if it falls on my right hand without me consciously moving it) it would not count as helping my left(if I hold it with my right before I number and open the crane at least one time then that's a different story). there is not time limit to this so you can do it as slow as one a month and get finished in about 84 years or you could do 30( hard but not impossible) a day and get the whole thing done at around a month(I say a good number is 3 a day but I'm averaging way over that). that's about it. I don't have anything more to say really. I hope som one other than me is interested in this project, and if you want to then share it with others! I don't care if you give me credit or not just so long as you  don't rip me off and say it was your idea then it's fine!
