Excellent Whimsical Timeglass

I love the custom-made hourglass. It is well-crated and well worth the price I paid. The Padauk wood is awesome! The laser engraving on the end-caps is great too! It is a great, inspirational piece for my novel the Stoneseekers - which features just such a device.

I only have two complaints. I wish the laser engraving had gone parallel with the grain of the wood. I did not specify this when I placed the order though, so I am not upset. The other complaint involves the inexplicable dust coating the pillars over time. I have no logical explanation for how this happens, but it appears some of the sand is getting out. I have no idea how this is even possible, but over time a fine powder builds up on the wooden pillars. It makes no sense to me. I just wipe it down after using it, and it does not really bother me. I am vexed that I am unable to explain its occurrence. There must be some microscopic hole allow it to escape.
