In fact I very nearly bought last week from Rose Bikes, but the shipping charges meant it wasn't viable, and on reflection I figured I'd stick with my trusty piece of card and a cable tie.
I just use a piece of card that I fold over the rim and then place against the rim so the brake blocks press against it, (so it gives a tolerance between pad and rim when cable is tightened and card is removed), and I use a cable tie fastened but with a loop left at the end and slip it over the back edge of the pad/block to create some toe-in, (as rear of pad/block won't be able to sit flush with rim due to the cable tie).
