Default Best ValveSpring tools?

So what do you guys think is the best Valve Spring tool?
for changing springs while the heads are on the motor and in the car?


I have a couple of crappy ones from years ago, but I don't trust em,

I believe Crane makes a badass one that can do two springs at once. Its the one I used on my car, but I think Crane is who makes it.

Tim's tool. The Crane is nice but the price is absolutely ridiculous. Major rip.

The Crane tool is very nice. I used it on my last swap. I didn't mind the price tag since it made the job much easier.
