Gudday Northern Hemisphere folks!!
 
Has anyone out there made a giant version of the novelty (i.e. coffee table
size) moving sand pictures for use in an exhibit environment???
 
To see what I mean by moving sand picture visit:

If you have -  I'd love to know how it went (easy?, hard?, any maintenance
problems?) and how best to go about making one of these or if there are any
international suppliers that manufacture large-scale ones.
 
We're looking to incorporate one as part of an exhibit on soil erosion and
deposition in river environments as they are such lovely visual
representations of sedimentation processes.
 
Many thanks in advance.
