3-D Printed Discs For Transistor Sockets?

Probably more trouble than it's worth, but... Anybody ever 3-D print the plastic part of these sockets?

They're more expensive than the transistor in many cases! Seems like you could just pop the metal sockets out of one of those SIP rows and place them in a printed disc...

Let me get this out of the way to save us some time! "Or you could, ya know... just not use sockets at all... Just sayin." Perfect! Yes, that's luckily an option :).
