Pulse generators, or "clocks", are devices which create a current that constantly toggle on and off. Pulse generators are variable, which means you are able to make different clocks for each frequency of flickering, to a degree. They can be used for many different projects such as an automatic dispenser turret and self-building bridges/houses.

Clocks can be made many different ways. The most efficient clock in terms of required materials is a 4 clock, shown above.
This clock design is very unstable however, because the redstone torch burns out after a while if it is set to either 1 or
2 ticks (0.1-0.2 seconds), otherwise when set to 3 or 4 ticks (0.3-0.4 seconds) is it perfectly stable. The simplest clock, which can be up to 4 ticks, doesn't require a redstone torch, but requires 2 repeaters. Another design, which is semi-simple and somewhat costly in materials, is a sticky piston clock. It uses 1 sticky piston, a lever, as many repeaters as desired, wire and any piston-pushable block.
