A GREAT PAINTER!
When we think about inventors names
like Bell and Edison immediately come to
mind. But what about Bill Painter? Dr.William
Painter is credited with 85 inventions! One of
them was patened on this very day in 1894.
And that was the bottle cap opener! Of course
prior to that he actually invented the bottle cap!
Some of Painter's inventions are still used nearly
every day. There was a machine for crowning
bottles. He came up with a machine to detect
counterfeit money. He invented another machine
that folds paper. Of course he did come up with
one that, to my knowledge, was never used.
Thankfully! It was an ejection seat for railroad
passenger cars! Well, you can't win them all!
Hope you're well and that all your NEWS is
good!
