Installing CK headsets without CK adapters?

I’m hunting for a Chris King 1.5” adapter set but it seems that Chris King have discontinued that product. I’ve got CK adapters for 1”, 1 1/8” and the 1 1/4” and always use them when installing. But I’ve just picked up a rig that needs a 1.5” inset 7 (which I have ready to install).

I went online to purchase an adapter set and found they no longer make them?! I was going to email Chris King to get some advice and I suspect many folk install them with home made diy headset presses (something I’ve never had to do as I’ve a Cyclus tools press - useful when you’re doing work on expensive bikes).

Any leads as to where I can get the 1.5” adapters from or should I look at alternatives? Cane Creek have an adapter set (although again I’m having trouble locating a store that has them in stock). Also how would I go about fitting the CK 1.5” crown race without the CK baseplate adapter?
