we just smack the stem with a hammer a few times, then use a similar arrangement as the G clamp and socket in the picture.
Magnetic screwdrivers are the best way to remove the collets once they're loose, either that or you get some really tiny pliers.

As for buying tools that you'll never use, the only reason you don't use them now is that you dont have them, G clamps are very useful.
Then again, I like spending money on tools, but hate spending money to get a job done that I know I can do for free once I buy the tools.
