How-To Adjust your Moving Sand Picture 
1. Remove the picture from its stand.
2. Remove the dowel pins.
3. Shake the sand to one end of the picture away from the opening you chose to use.
4. Using a 3cc hypodermic syringe with a 22 gauge needle, approx 1-1/2” long (purchase: local veterinary supply or farmers’ co-op). With the plunger pulled all the way back pierce the seal, remove the plunger from the syringe. Let the picture pull or push out air and or fluid as it needs to balance with its environment.
5. With the pressure balanced, remove fluid if more air is needed. The same holds up to fluid being needed. The air bubbles should optimally fill near the space of a quarter placed in the corner of the picture as seen in the photos.
Note: The more air bubbles in the sand picture, the slower it will run. The slower moving pictures form sharp peaks. With less air bubbles in the sand picture, the faster it will run. Faster pictures tend to form a wave-like effect.
