    Hi everyone so ive spent most of my time in the US whilst there i have purchased really bad grippers,plate clamps etc etc there made from the cheapest materials and its so hard to get good quality parts without going to Heidelberg and needing a bank loan at the same time. I met with a guy on the off chance in Chicago i was telling him the same thing. A few days later i came across a company in england called Merlin Precision Engineering i called them asking about there pincer bars on there website they told me they were heidelberg quality at less than a quarter of the price!
    If am honest i didnt believe the guy on the phone i asked if i wasnt happy could i return the 102 pincer bar. There response was yes so i thought what the hell lets try them. The pincer bar arrived next day fedex from England! The pincer bar is as good if not better than Heidelbergs! I ordered some 74s 2 days ago they came this morning and there the same just a hell of a lot cheaper and not made in China!
    Its taken me so long to source low cost quality parts so i wanted to share this with everyone. Pincer bars give them a shout and thank me after you've recieved them :D

    I did not know about Merlin.........
    I have found another company in UK called MRL Midlands Limited. mrlmidlands.co.uk They have a huge amount of products.......Saved a ton of money on a brake disk for cut star......Have to call or contact them early if you are in teh USA......to get it shipped. usually 3 days transit.
