Hi Terry, Get a captive hammer coil lifter/setter. That way nada touches the plate or in your case the veneer.

The simple coil lifter for example - is in not designed to be levered on the plate/pinblock so that when you push down on the handle the little fork on the other end pushes up on the coil bottom?
