You may find it easier to rip the Delrin with a band saw than a table
saw. You can put a fence on each side of the blade (clamp on pieces of
wood, if necessary) and run it through. The band saw will tug at the
work piece less than a table saw. Also, taking a quarter inch off with a
blade that has a eighth inch kerf is a little difficult. The remaining
eighth inch is likely to break off in chunks as you're cutting.
