A nut pick works great. Just have cut off the sharp end of the pick and grind it smooth.

I also use a grapefruit spoon - the little ridges keep it from slipping.

I found that a metal pick that comes with the nut crackers set works really well it has two grooves in the end that the pins set in it works great.

I agree with grann of 6. It would never be where I needed it.

Do you have one? What do you use to close pins?

Have one - love it!
