Description: These unique clamps, developed in France by Dr. Berna, are made of technologically advanced materials used in the aircraft industry. Beams are made of high density carbon fibres and the jaws are incredibly supple - giving the clamps a tactile flexibility and pressure sensitivity similar to the human hand. Multiple Clamps - Use clamps in various combinations to press on otherwise hard to reach surfaces. Spreading Tool - By reversing the direction of the buffers, Berna Assemblers can be used as spreading tools. Ideal for holding workpieces for painting, weathering etc. Create a Jig - Use Berna Assemblers in conjunction with connectors and other accessories to create your own jigs to hold even the most complex shapes.

Review: I had no idea whether these would work but I'd read good reviews about them in a couple of different websites and model-making magazines. Having used them on a model that I'm working on right now (a Tamiya Mosquito), I can confirm that these are bloody brilliant! They don't look like your normal clamp (whatever a "normal" clamp is) and they look as if they would snap as soon as any serious pressure was put on them but nothing could be further from the truth. They are unbelievably strong, and exert a pressure that you'll be surprised by! Having said that, they'll only put on as much pressure as you want them to as they are very responsive and act pretty much just like your fingers, and the pads on the end (not sure what they're made of, silicone perhaps?) are grippy enough not to slide off awkwardly shapes like the edge of a model airplane wing. I wish I'd known about these ages ago, and I'll definitely be buying more. 100% recommended.
