I won this Rock on on a well known auction site for 99p plus postage!

Neither the seller nor I know what it is!  Seems to be a well made ( part welded) but homemade project,combining some Preston Innovations bits fitted to whatever someone had in their shed!



Whatever the project was meant to be, the spirit of ingenuity appealed to me at that price!

Especially so as I am currently adapting a Preston seatbox carrying bracket meant to fit one of their own barrows for carrying an Inception SL30 box, to fit my MAP barrow.

Just buying a Preston barrow would be far too easy a solution! I raise my mug of coffee in salute to back yard engineers combining bits of stuff they keep in their sheds because they'll find a use for them one day!

Suspect they are now telling all their mates how they sold this stuff for 99p.

Did they also sell pieces of old rope? Laughing
