I have small hands, so for those CD manipulators out there, would this act as a major obstacle? Are there smaller CDs on the market? Also, am I able to use any CD, or are they special CD's like manipulation decks?
Cheers,

I know they used to make small computer discs, about 3" in diameter. They were not real common, but they were around. But you know, even with small hands, you should learn what you can with the full size CDs, while also working with the small ones. Then you'd have more material at your disposal. Imagine doing some of the rotine with one size, then doing a magical size change, and continue on with the new size. Maybe work up to a finale production of a giant CD, say 12" across!!

Hand size really should not matter. It's making the best use of what you do have at your disposal. Think lateral, not linear.

If you have small hands, it might make it easier for you. Most of us have to file the hole of the CD's to get our finger tips through them. You might not have to. Angles are the real secret it CD magic. Just get them right and you should have no problem.

Yes, there are custom CD's.

Click on the option choice you will see CD for sale in 5 and 30 Pack.

When I include smaller sized instruction, I include the 3" dvd's, they hold about 1.45gb of content. They are very common to buy on ebay or cd/dvd supplies, but they do cost about 45 cents on average compared to 20 cents for a standard dvd. (in bulk).
