Description
Forget digital timers! Back in 1929, this clever kitchen gadget used an hourglass and the power of gravity to ring a bell when your egg was perfectly boiled. Watch how the shifting sand tips the mechanism and sounds the alarm in this brilliant piece of retro engineering. Would you use this in your kitchen today? 👇
