This isn't bad, except for that the signals are now one set of
1,3,5,7... and one set of 2,4,6,8... If I want to keep the
contiguous signals together then I have to jumper just about
everything. I want a device that I can solder a 2-wide DIL to
that has a single row of 1,2,3,4,5... SingleInLine 0.10" going
out, where the signals stay together. Call it a PC board-lette.

Nothing special. Although I have an OK Speed-Wrap
here that may have to become more than a just a
conversation piece. Up to now it's been discrete
soldering on simple lattice line boards. stripboard?
Again, to set up 30 lines inorder, its 29 jumpers. Yuk.
