During Madison's presidency four useful things were invented and one act were made. Madison's presidency was from 1809 to 1817. Nothing was invented for the first three years he was a president, but the first year (1809) the Non-intercourse Act was made. The act was about the stop between the British and French if they stopped taking American's goods from their ships just like the Embargo Act made in 1807 before Madison presidency. Then, in 1812 the columbiad, which is a canon that shoots far and they were used in the war of 1812. Then one year later in 1813 the circular saw was  invented. The circular saw is a metal blade that cuts through wood, there is either a hand-held or a table saw. Surprisingly, dental floss was invented in 1815, dental floss is a thin piece of string that mostly likely has mint flavor on it and gets food out of between your teeth so you don't get cavities. Then, the milling machines were made in 1816. They are use to shape metal, they also drill. All in all, many things were made during James Madison's presidency.
