cam spring removal tool

What are people using to remove the springs with heads on. Can't see spending the 120.00 for the Crane tool for a one time use, and the tool I did buy is just too big for the job. Looks like a tool used for the old small blocks with studs.

Just looked at the tool. Does the back of this tool rest on the head where the valve cover seats? Wish I would have seen this a week age. More delays.

I have a brand new one that I can ship out priority mail tomorrow. I bought it but ended up with the crane tool as a gift. Let me know I will do $32 shipped!
Let me know if you want to paypal the money!
