[sdiy] dip pins ( I dont know what the heck to call'em )

I'm trying to figure out how to identify some pins I need.

They are commonly used on smd to dip adapters.  They seem to press-fit into
the board singly, although maybe they are soldered.  Dont care really, just
trying to figure out what to call them so I can try and order some.  So far
all I've found are DIP headers which add too much thickness.

Bonus points if someone can point me at pin sockets.  Man I have no idea how
to describe...   like, if you drilled all the holes for a DIP socket but
made them larger then normal so machinepin sockets would drop into the holes
and solder flush.

I hope these dont sound like insane ramblings...
