On DIP chips, I've carved into the chip package with a sharp knife until a bit of the lead was exposed. Then, using a saw cut a fine groove into the lead and soldered a piece of copper wire into it. For a PLCC socket you need very good precision, so good job on this!

One more reason to invest in a proper chip-puller and stop prying with those screwdrivers... ;)

Back when I routinely fixed A500s (those golden times... ;)) I had a plate with screws fitting into the PCB holes - just put the board on the plate, push it down and send Agnus popping out.
