Very nice Mariya!

-- Tony C , My high school shop teacher said "You can do it"... Now I can't stop!

Something I’ve had on my to-do list for years, but I still can’t find a decent 17th century looking glass part to do it.

I don’t remember ever seeing that design before :) box is a great choice for such thin spindles.

-- Thomas - There is no such thing as a problem, there only are solutions.

Yes, the glass piece is part of a very old hourglass.
He inspired me to make this mine and the other one.
I love the sands of time, but it was terribly difficult!
looks so easy, but have So many parts and fit!

Such incredible talent. I am amazed at the things you can do. It is such an intricate piece. I’d be afraid to touch it with my clumsy hands. I can’t even fathom how you were able to cut and assemble such a fine piece.

-- Learning is like a door. Open it and there are hundreds more on the other side. Thanks for all the lessons!

Thank you All !
Only handmade, everything is so fine and light!
Of all the types of wood which I have access only Boxwood withstand this kind of work.
