Year of discovery 1992

This sawtooth works by having a period 960 gun send glider southwest. Some are deleted and the rest reflect off the back of a 7-engine Cordership. Each returning glider deletes 2 outgoing ones.

  • The number of alive cells plotted versus the number of elapsed generations roughly forms an ever-increasing sawtooth graph.
