does anyone know what type and where to get these style of male and female header pins?
that dont look like the normal ones found from tayda etc

I have some male to male headers like that... but, I have no idea where I got them.

However, the pins are slightly larger than the Tayda female header sockets... so they aren't compatible together....

I know, no help.  MC
I used to really be with it!  That is, until they changed what "it" is.  Now, I can't find it.  And, I'm scared!  --  Homer Simpson's dad

They are called "machined pin headers".   I don't know what brand they are
and I don't know what pin pitch you want.

I'd guess they're standard 0.1" pitch headers from the look of them. I agree it's difficult to find the turned round-pin headers. The simpler square-pin type are much more common (cheaper?) and easier to find.

I've tried and struggled, trying to find pin headers that would fit in a turned-pin IC socket for making PCB daughter boards (say I want to replace an antique 40-pin DIP processor IC - 6502 or Z80 era, maybe - with something more modern and powerful, but that isn't pin-for-pin compatible, for example..)

Sorry, no help either. But I commiserate! ;)
