In this article, I will tell you how to create an hourglass from the Botania mod and what it is used for.

Let's start with what an hourglass is and what it is used for.

An hourglass - is an item added by the Botania mod, which is used to emit a redstone signal at different intervals. Most often, hourglasses are used for automating mechanisms.

Crafting an hourglass:

To make the hourglass work, you need to put sand in it. If you place 1 normal sand in the hourglass, it will emit a redstone signal every second, and if you place 2 sands, it will emit a signal every 2 seconds respectively.

Additionally, if you place 1 red sand in the hourglass, it will emit a red signal once every 10 seconds.

If you put soul sand in the hourglass, 1 minute of time will be added for each block until the redstone signal is emitted.

This concludes the functionality of the hourglass, I hope this was useful for you!
