Who invented the milking stool?
1 Answer
Merrill T. Hamilton invented the milking stool and received a patent for his design in 1906. He created the stool with three legs instead of four to increase stability on uneven surfaces in barns and pastures, so a farmer could more easily milk cows. On 1stDibs, shop a selection of milking stools.
