if you mean just white delrin for making your own parts, try mcmaster-carr, or the yellow pages in your phone book for 'plastic'. mcmaster sells a bunch of raw material, and they have delrin/acetal in blocks, sheet, etc.

Always cool to have members who produced parts back in the day join the site and share their stories.
