I was thinking about the poor guy in Finland that was going to have to
rewire his PDP-7 backplane tonight, and did some digging for bit/sleeve
part numbers. Amazingly, you can still buy the right stuff from Cooper
Tools. They have a really neat pdf catalog
http://www.cooperhandtools.com/catalog/pdffiles/electcat_00/Brands/WireWrap.PDF

>From a 1967 DEC Logic Handbook, you need a gardner-denver 26263 bit and 18840
sleeve for #24 wire and 504221 bit and 500350 sleeve for #30 wire. The #24
unwrapping tool is 500130

These may also work for 1401 connectors, which are quite similar to the H800
DEC single sided module blocks with rectangular shaped pins.
