[edit] Chisels

I don't think that the tissue paper is cut using chisels. --Mackilicious 01:48, 14 September 2007 (UTC) I think it is cut using scissors. I may be wrong, but thats what i used. Tissue paper isn't hard enough to really use chisels. Jaguarkitty (talk) 03:47, 2 November 2010 (UTC)

It can be cut using scissors or chisels. --Banana (talk) 06:54, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Translation

Partially translated. Will finish later. --Banana (talk) 06:54, 6 December 2010 (UTC)

[edit] Connection with Prehispanic Culture

I think there should be some mention of connections between paper making, paper cutting, papel picado, and prehispanic cultural use - because there is some. I think it is unfair that there is no mention of any kind of continuity in Mexican civilization between Mexico before the conquest and after the conquest, when in fact there is.
