Kemper:
I'm guessing that Olivander bores out a twig from one of the special 
wand trees (the ones with those tree faerie things with the sharp 
teeth, then places the magical core (dragon heart string, unicorn 
hair, phoenix feather).  Maybe there's some magical fussion on 
Olivander's part, leaving the wand essentially a twig of varying 
length.  So, what I'm taking a long time to say is that the wizard 
probably holds the weightier side of the twig which is probably the 
side with more overall circumference than the other.  It's more 
ergonomical.

Maybe.
