Anyone got a spring compressor?

I need to take some springs off my heads. Does anyone in Austin or Houston have a spring compressor i can borrow? I live in Austin, but i am going to houston this weekend (July 10th).

Thanks,
Stu

You can get one at O'Reilly's for about $15. I have one, but I kinda messed it up when doing my valve springs. I finished them, but part of the compressor kinda came apart.

Valve springs were, IMO, the hardest part of the cam install.
