Hammer And A Punch. But If You Plan On Doing Alot Of Chains You Might As Well But A Chain Breaker. Its Worth It . Well A Good One Not The Cheap One At Walmart. A Good One Is Worth It

If you use a chain breaker you won't need the master link... If you grind off the end of the pin you will need to use your master link. So be careful to get it right the first time.
