Assuming you were talking about the PCB carrier and not a normal DIP
package carrier, it turned out to be possible to generate a 24-pin
version of the carrier right from the existing .scad file without even
editing it, by supplying overrides for two variables on the commandline.
For the pcb I had to copy and edit.
There's a 24-pin version of the carrier and pcb here now:
https://github.com/bkw777/Molex78805_PCB_Module/
I'll probably knock up a version that takes a normal DIP-24 instead of a
pcb too but not today.
Don't bother trying to print the carrier at home. Generally you just
need SLS for this. And specifically SLS, not MJF.

I believe the little Panasonic notebook also used a 24 pin version.

Is it really the same shapes & dimensions but only fewer pins? I can
make that into a variable no problem, where you change 28 to whatever,
and it generates a 2-to-whatever pin version.
A little bit later tonight.
