Margaret, be that as it may, started creating things at a youthful age and had her first achievement from the get-go throughout everyday life. She saw a repulsive mishap at the cotton factory where she and her siblings worked. Numerous individuals had attempted throughout the years to make the weaving machines for the laborers yet nobody had thought of a thought that worked. Margaret go through a long stretch of time making a more secure plan for the loom piece being referred to and at the youthful age of 12 she had her first working development.

Paper sacks around then were envelope molded and held shut by having twine or string folded over them. Square base packs were seldom utilized in light of the fact that they must be made by hand and were over the top expensive. Margaret concluded that there was certainly opportunity to get better and set about attempting to make a machine that would cut, crease and glue square bottoms packs without anyone else. This would make the sacks considerably less costly to deliver and accomplish crafted by numerous individuals with just one machine. She worked days at the Columbia Paper Bag Company and keeping in mind that she worked, she considered the machines that were in presence there as of now.

When the structure of the machine was great, she employed somebody to make the real machine for her. The models had not been extremely durable and she needed one made of iron that would hold up to an entire days work.

Margaret had placed an excessive amount of work into this machine and was not going to sit by and let another person assume the acknowledgment for it. She indicted Charles Annan over taking her thought and her patent.

Charles Annan thought little of Margaret Knight and it cost him the court fight. Margaret got every one of her drawings, plans and models of the machine. She clarified how it functioned and why it would improve the strategy right now utilized. Her insight and documentation demonstrated to the adjudicator that she was the legitimate proprietor of the structure and the machine. Margaret got her patent for the paper sack in 1870.
