When you said SHORT, I thought you meant lenght of the pins as height
over the board.
The pins will slide easily in the black plastic holder.
Also the black plastic holders are usually knotched for snapping
apart.
I find that it is easy enough to remove a pin at a time when pulling
an old board apart. but really hard to pull apart a 20 pin row at
one time without a torch.
