The purpose of the copper tool is to lift the gear from the rack in order to move it to the correct position. Just use some brass shim stock and a pair of scissors if you don't want to buy one. But if they are cheap, just buy it. It will be a good fit, and since you don't have one to copy, the shim stock/scissors will be a little trial and error.
