Candelabra
Candelabra is a period-3 oscillator that was found by Charles Trawick in 1971.[1][2] It uses tubs as induction coils and it can easily be extended, as shown below.

Glider syntheses for several variants of this oscillator were found by Mark Niemiec and Martin Grant in 2015 and 2016.[3][4][5][6] A 19-glider synthesis for the canonical version of this oscillator, featuring tubs as stabilization, was found by GUYTU6J on March 5, 2020.[7]

gollark: That's annoying. It's the end of the breeding season and I don't have any of what they want.
gollark: Link? I want one.
gollark: Especially since I breed to AP weekly.
gollark: Don't worry! All but my coded dragons are named. You can enjoy my selection of really messy lineages complete with cryptic/nonsensical names!
gollark: I need some way to automate massbreeds.
