A screw cap twisting tool uses two primary members—a stationary member with gripping surface(s) and a high-mechanical-advantage-for-gripping pivoting member with gripping surface(s)—to easily and effectively grip and twist a screw cap. The screw cap twisting tool is easily operated by pushing the screw cap against the pivoting member. A screw cap twisting tool also uses a method for holding the pivoting member in its most open position before screw cap insertion. This method for holding the pivoting member in its most open position can be accomplished in numerous ways by using a force opposing feature, member, or mechanism that allows movement and/or deformation when force is applied and restores position and/or shape when force is removed. Examples include, but are not limited to: built-in elastic metal or plastic material, separate metal or plastic spring, separate elastic O-ring or rubber band, gravity, or magnetism.
