Thread a piece of brake cable through so it creates a loop, pull the ends apart with pliers to tighten it, pops right open

Not a good idea to do this with steel cable. It can gouge the pin in the link which can then cause an intermittent and infuriatingly-difficult-to-diagnose skip in the drivetrain. Use string or something similarly soft.

Anyone got a hack for removing those chain quick-links? Before I buy the specialist park tools tool, is there anything in the home I can use?
