Homebrew PCBs

Hello Jim Pruitt:

Could you be referring to "MOLEX PINS"?

Years ago I purchased a bag-full of these items from a now defunct 
electronics mail order supplier.

I still have a few of them, and use them as required.
You can make any size IC socket you require using these pins.

Regards,

Roland F. Harriston
