Milano rear brake pad adjustment

["Bain, Bill" <Bill.Bain@domain.elided>]

I'm sitting here with a new set of pads (Mintex -- from AlfaBill) for my
Milano (still trying to sort out why there's so much pedal travel, new
MC, new SS brake lines, pressure bled system).   I doubt that new pads
will fit the problem, but if I'm going to spend this much time under the
car, I might as well replace the pads (The rotors look really good).
Also, that removes one issue.  Question:  how to adjust the rear brakes.
Hans showed me how, but he has a special "tool" to hold the lock nut in
place while turning the adjuster with a hex wrench.  None of the
aftermarket suppliers list the tool, so what are folks using for a
substitute?
