Plastic Short Starter

[wilded]

Several years ago I bought some white plastic short starters, the material maybe delrin. They work great for starting the ball and cutting the patch. I cannot find them now. Does anyone know where I can get them? Thanks, ET

Post a picture. I'd like to see one. Maybe we can hunt them down if we know who made them.

This place sells Delrin rods, perhaps you could buy a length and make your own...

Let me know how many you want

 

[wilded]

If the price is right
I need the following
2 in .32
2 in .36
2 in .40
1 in .45
1 in .50

The part that seats the ball is concave to fit the curvature of the ball. Thanks ET

Thanks,

Is this the stuff that comes from the horn of the 3-toed delrinoceras? :crackup:

 

No, I think it's mined by elves, and comes out of the ground as the ore "Delrinite", and then needs to be smelted into tubular moulds by Tibetan Monks. :crackup: :crackup:

Buying Delrin rods in 3/4" sizes would run you about $2.00 apiece if you cut them to 4 inch lengths, plus time and money turning them on a lathe.

I get waste nylon blocks from a plastics injection mould shop for free. Cut them down to size and turn them on a mini lathe.

Hope this helps.
