So, here's something that came to me recently. I wanted to do more with fluid dynamics, and it occurred to me that I had a perfectly good hourglass model lying around. So I decided to try and put some sand through it.
The results are nice, but not realistic. As you can plainly see, the sand isn't very sand-like, and the grains behave more like water than sand. Still, it shows that my hourglass model does in fact function. Hopefully, I can design better products later.

pretty cool though! i was about to say that the sand bounces for a while! I thought that was the best part!
i can see how it flows like water instead of piling up like sand. hey, did you get my note on myspace?
I like how it bounces at first too. =) Very fun!
fun. It makes me want to play a board game or some kind of game that has to do with a timer. :)
