This looks interesting, Eric, though I've never tried it myself: http://bbs.homeshopmachinist.net/threads/43645-Making-Acetal-leadscrew-nuts-the-easy-way
Sorry to interrupt!

David D, What;s a trolly token?
I tried cutting a slice off the Delrin bar for a project with my 4x6 bandsaw. I forgot it had a 22tpi blade on it. It cut a bit, then the blade just skated. The teeth filled up with swarf and it seemed to melt to the blade. I spent several minutes cleaning the blade off, LOL.
I have a 10-14 tpi blade but I'm not sure that will do much better.

Andy hit a good site of a reasonable process, failing that I've just made a tap from spare rod if it is a square thread.
