I know he published a copy of the bible but don't really think that's classed as 'invented' so not a clue.

That can be so frustrating. I have a huge missing chunk because I can't find one line back - but I won't give up!!!

It was the printing press, he also printed the 'Gutenberg' bible.

Last question folks! Thanks for sticking with me this long!
