There's also a cheap tool that does the same thing that you can buy at Auto Zone, etc for about $10. It isn't as good a tool but it does work. Don
KD Tools makes a tool that will compress the valve springs with the heads still on the motor. I have one that I used to replace the valve springs on my motorhome. I was able to use the hose and fittings from my compression tester to put compressed air into the cylinder I was working on to keep the valve closed when the spring was removed. I almost learned the hard way about moving the piston up to the top before removing the valve springs. If the piston is at the bottom and you lose air pressure the valve will fall into the cylinder. Then you have to remove the head. I found a webpage that shows the tool I am talking about: http://www.mytoolstore.com/kd/kdengi13.html#3087 It's the first one on the page, KD 912.
