Set of pincer pliers to hold the pin and a big hammer works for me if I go too far with the chain link tool  :daumenhoch:

Yes you can get the joining link, but make sure you get the correct one, take the chain with you too a local bike shop and they should be able to sort you out  :daumenhoch:
I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,
 Straining upon the start. The game's afoot:
 Follow your spirit, and upon this charge
 Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George!'

If your chain is an old blue one it's 99% going to be a 1/8" picth so just ask your local shop for a joining link for an 1/8 chain.
