You can make a perfectly good spring compressor from a length of 5/8
threaded steel rod, three nuts, a 1/4 steel plate, and some big thick
washers. 

    **** You can save some labor by using a piece of wood 2x4  in place of the
steel plate.  Just drill a hole in the middle for the threaded rod.  The 2x4
will "conform" to the shape of the studs, etc without harming them.
