While we do have a few hand held chain breakers, what we use most is a custom press pin we made to mount right to a small bench top arbor that we have. On the face of the press there is a piece of steel with holes drilled to align the chain under the pin and then we just press out one of the pins so it is just in one side of the link. Then remove however links we need to and flip the chain and press the pin back in.
