Delrin Rod
Delrin is a great plastic for turning on a machine lathe. It is easy to turn, but it requires slow speeds. I use this stuff to make Scottish smallpipes chanters. I have purchased numerous items from Small Parts via Amazon. Small Parts always ships promptly and everything has been well packed. I have never had a problem with an order. Best of all Small Parts honors Amazon Prime -- free 2-day shipping.

Delrin rod
I bought a chunk of this material to make a reading stylus. I know it isn't recommended to use a stylus for speed reading, but I use one, it seems to act as a sort of 'momentum' to keep me moving. I wanted some kind of plastic that would slide smoothly over the pages and I found it. This material is light weight and exhibits low friction, yet doesn't wear inordinately. It worked easily enough on my wood lathe for the short piece I was turning, but it did tend to bend rather too easily for turning. You have to keep your length/width ratio pretty thick. I went ahead and bought the three foot piece (stylus only five inches) and I'm sure I'll find other useful applications for the remainder. Good stuff. Too the price from this supplier was something unusual, FAIR!
