Well when this came up a week or so ago, I suggested stealing
the fingers off an existing board.  One could use an ISA board,
cut off the connector fingers, and cut it down to fifty pins.  I
think when I was looking at doing that, it was feasible.  One trick,
though, is that some boards they don't bother with all the fingers,
which may be an issue depending on what signals are needed.

I also suggested etching the fingers.  At one time, I've not checked
lately, you could get "Letraset" type stuff for etching boards,
and they had a set for fingers.  Then you attach that to the perfboard
or whatever.
