Chain tool handy 9n east Denver?

I've been working on my XR all day, and am done except for one thing - I can't find my chain tool ANYWHERE. Anybody have a rivet tool to loan for a few minutes? Feel free to come over and help/watch, or give me a call if you're close enough and I'll come get it.

Just tried to call you back. You're a little south, but definitely within range. I only need the rivet tool right now, as the old chain had a master link.

Thanks, Photo82 came through in high style on Saturday. We had that chain popped together in 10 minutes. (Now, how long will it take for me to break it? )

Just as an FYI, if you don't have a tool, and you need to remove some links, just grind the head off one of the pins & drive it out with a drift punch.

Motion Pro makes a nice chain tool.
