Without a tool, that is. The thread just sorta popped over the little
tongue while I was trying to open a seam ripper with my other hand and
my teeth. I think the secret is to push the thread a little before
pulling it.

You should never use a tool to pry on the tension spring. It can cause
damage or deformation. Those little springs are not available nor are the
bobbin cases.

Never fear -- I was using a tool to lift the thread.
