I'd love to, but I can't find an IC socket that will accept the ZIF socket pins - they are too big for
turned-pin sockets and the wrong way round for dual-wipe sockets - they are wide across the socket rather than
along it, as with ICs, and it just won't go in.  Unless you know of some that will work?
