Nothing to worry, Delrin is easy to work with.

I had a project as well and needed to Mill some HDPE plastic with my $75. Delta drill press.
I used a 1/2 end mill and a 1/4 reamer for the detail
piece of cake

show us your peice

I've still got to order up all the bits and material. Still recooperating from the cost of some descent vises.

I'll post up something once I get it started.

Thanks.

I got the vises from Sears/Craftsman. I picked up these vises:
3" Cross-Slide
3" Tilt
4" Machinist

Tooling and material I am going to get from McMaster-Carr.
