My *guess* is pre sltting would not be any easier and would slow down
the CNC lathe work.


The trade off is slitting 15 4" pieces vs 1 5' piece.

BTW - I found a source for 1" x 3/4" Delrin that prices it at $37 per 5'
piece. $2.50 material cost for each 4" piece! 'Course when you're
buying 2500', you'll get a better price, I hope.
