Was thinking of possibly trying to fab carriage bearings out of delrin because it moves super slick over metal. The small search and reading I have done came up w it being finicky and a big trial and error (like any of this). Worse comes to worse I want to possibly look into getting them outsourced. I know from my paintball days of upgrading to a delrin bolt (strong, no lube and lightweight) also why I thought of using them as the bearings. Any thoughts or experience chime in, please. After all I'm just a guy with silly ideas
