I've got a SF wrench for 3P, but nothing for CT. I just use a #2 phillips head screwdriver to what feels close to 20-25ftlbs. Shims and Rocksett are also used.

I just ground down a cheap wrench until narrow enough.
Bicycle shops usually sell stamped wrenches that are > 3/16" thick. A strap wrench would work as well.
IIRC, torque value is only like 20-25 lbs.
Eta: Per SF: "
No less than 20, no more than 30 lbs
."
Site VS Sight....it's a tough one....
