It has been suggested that this article or section be merged into Cordership due to the following reason: probably better as a footnote on Cordership technology given its stabilisation (Discuss)
This article is a stub. You can help LifeWiki by expanding it.

Consists of an R-pentomino reacting with a blinker, creating another blinker and R-pentomino.[1][2]

This reaction cannot continue forever, as a stray spark will turn the created blinker into a two-glider octomino. By using Corderrakes to remove the blinker, however, the reaction can be stabilized.[3] A fuse made out of blinkers and blocks is possible.[4]
