I have a really neat set of adapters I picked up in Taiwan a few years ago. The first one is an adapter from PLCC32 to DIL32 - it stands about 2 inches high and slots directly into a PLCC slot. I have put a ZIF socket into that. I also managed to pick up an adapter from DIL to PLCC, and that has a special ZIF PLCC socket. I can try to see if a friend of mine in Taipei can find more of these - I recall paying just a few dollars for both adapters, and they have proved invaluable.

Still, I'd rather make an adapter. I've been told that production motherboard PLCC adapters are usally only rated for about 10 insertions. An adapter must be manufactured I think. Perhaps someone has some experience with plastic mold injection adapter design & fabrication.
I have quite good experience with injection moulding, though not with adapters. That should not be a problem though. I've worked with injection moulding within the car industry here in Sweden since '97 (designed injection moulded parts that is). What do you wish to know?
