haha you said tool..

we used a rather primitive tool the other day made by Snap on, I think. Basically it's just a metal part that goes over the retainer and keeper, you hit it with a hammer, and the keeper is magnetically pulled into the tool. This thing worked so much faster than the Snap on lever that you see every where.
