No idea.
I cut up zinc plated garden tie wire as pins.
I used a B7G base protector as a template to punch holes in plastic.
Set pins through with solder blobs at top
Added glue gun.
Soldered on the Rod Tube(s)
Removed from base protector.
I've been looking for B7G plugs intermittently for years. Only Octal and the related higher pin count plugs seem to be widely available. I tried a broken valve base, but you can't solder to those. The internal structure is welded on.
I'd be able to make nicer ones if I had plain paxolin or tufnol sheet.
