[Woodcarver] micro-carving?

[My Chip Carving]

Hi Donna,
He described micro-carving as those carvings that will fit on the head of a pin.
I Googled "netsuke" and that would not be what he is interested in doing.
Can you help him?

Sincerely,

    I just spoke with a gentleman interested in doing micro-carving. 
    Knowing nothing about this myself, I'm leaning on you to help me help him.

    First, what kind of wood is used for micro-carving?

    Second, what tools are used for micro-carving and where can they be purchased?

    Thanks in advance!
