I am very impressed with the quality of the finish you are getting on these parts! What kind of tool and feedrate are you using to cut the Delrin? I tried to cut some Nylon at the weekend and I think I largely ended up melting the plastic and not removing the sprial rubbish so it ended up fouling the cutter on subsequent passes. Any tips?
Andy, Delrin is great for cutting, because it is relatively hard. Nylon is relatively soft and melts easily. I think everyone has trouble cutting Nylon.
