I need some opinions from the tool jockeys in the group about choices of
spanner wrenches from Micro-tools.

1) Which spanner wrench to buy from Micro-tools for removing front or rear
retaining rings?
2)Will I need a vice or pliers or something to hold most lenses with while
removing the ring and element?

1) I bought my spanner wrench from a guy in Boise, ID off of eBay for 18.00
USD and it works perfectly on Zuiko lenses. I will try and find his contact
info. Moose is right, though. The gum rubber stopper is the way to go. No
chance of wrench slip (with subsequent lens scratch).
2) Hand grip is all that is required.
This may be overkill, but I also use the disposable medical or surgeon
gloves when working on a lens.
