Hi! Does anyone know where to get those rows of individual machine pins
for
wire wrapping?

Hi
It seems I just saw those in the Jameco catalog.

Thanks Dwight and Chuck! I found what I was looking for (wire wrap SIP
sockets) in the Jameco catalog for a fairly reasonable price. They also
have terminal pins but not the machine pin variety. Digikey has those, as
Chuck pointed out, but the price seems unreasonable. $35 for a small bag of
socket pin terminals? Wow!
Thanks and have a nice day!

I lucked out and found a box of 100 at MC Howard in Austin. I'm still
of the impression that, if I really need something (as I did those
pins and a few other bits), it'll magically appear at MC Howard when I
visit.

Sometimes, it's very cost effective to pick up a used wire-wrap
prototyping board and simply punch the unused pins out.
Also, be on the lookout for surplus wire-wrap DIP sockets. It's easy
enough to cut the row of pins off to make your own SIP socket.

When I've needed bunches of those to make a custom
PGA socket, I've just
extracted them from machine pin DIP sockets. A short piece of copper
tubing and a hammer work wonders.

I machined a tool for this from a piece of 1/4" brass rod. A light
tap on the end with a rawhide hammer does the trick without bending
the pin.

Right! The same is true in labor negotiations, as well....

For what? Remoing wire-wrap contacts, or 'educating' lusers?
