If you use the search function you will find several valve spring compressor threads.

I like my Snap On unit. It's sold as another brand (search function) for about $35. Has a 5/8" hex head on top that makes it easy to tighten with a ratchet, as well as a **** you could turn with your hands. It's also very short and I was able to easily get to all 16 valve springs.
