I want to see if any of you have a better idea for a medium sized grappler than what im workin on. Right now i have an orc paragon 3/ fighter 1 with a 27 base strength (my dm allows starting with a 20 base in a point buy system). By 9th level ill have added 5 levels of bear totem barbarian giving rage 2/day improved grapple and +4 grapple when raging. With this ill have 32 strength for +11, +9 BaB, +4 improved grapple, +4 grapple when raging, and ill probably have a strength magic item for a +29 to grapple medium sized. Any ideas on improving this?

If you re-read the post I linked to, you'll see a few things you apparently missed or failed to mention in your original post:

Jotunbrud
Gloves of Fearsome Grip
Locking Hands Fiendish Graft
(magic) Armor Spikes

You should also be aware that at high levels shapeshifting Druids can seriously dismantle you in grapples.
