The best part of waking up… flintlock alarm clock.Made in Austria in the early 18th century, this clock has a nifty flintlock mechanism rigged with the clock work. When the clock struck a preset time, a bell would ring and the flintlock mechanism would fire discharging a small amount of gunpowder in the flashpan. Simultaneously the candle was also lit as well. -- source link
