Thanks Richard
I'm quite pleased with the end result, the Go Pro sounds like an interesting idea.

Re: Towing Aids.
Another interesting little bit of info has popped up via the internet. This "Bendigo"Dolly was recently for sale. The label on it describes it as a "Bendigo" dolly but it is of the same design as the "Hendy" Dolly.
So after a quick look I posted the patent for the Hendy dolly back in 2013 with the inventor listed as Victor Percival Buckland, and the label has the patentee and sole distributor as V. P. Buckland and sons. So it looks as though Victor Buckland designed the dolly and started selling them and at some stage Henderson has purchased or paid for the rights to sell them under their name.

Re: Towing Aids.
hello,
i have a Hutchinson Dolly, i bought it when i was travelling around OZ from Mr Hutchinson. i made a mount for my motorbike to go on the back of the car and extended the tow bar, therefore needed something to take the weight off the car. this dolly worked perfectly for that and also stopped any trailer sway from when trucks go past etc. i would be interested in selling it if anyone is interested. regards Iain

Re: Towing Aids.
Hi Iain. For some reason I completely missed your post.
Wow you were pretty well loaded up with the bike etc.
As for the dolly where are you located and how much were you asking for the dolly?
Cheers.
