I've been able to assemle it without the pliers, no problems, just needs a little greasing. I just didn't feel like spending 20 bucks on the pliers, lol...

Soaking it in very hot water makes it much easier to work with.

i dont use the pliers either, i just keep ushing till the lock into each other, has worked so far. As for taking it apart i bend the two pieces until they sort of break apart (but not actually break.

I just added 3/4" loc-line without the use of the pliers. It actually wasn't that hard to assemble. I have heard that 1/2" is much harder to assemble though.
