A machine shop can bore that stuff out????? This is way over my head. I had a tough time finding a shop to press the bearing out.
Yes,

A machine shop will be familiar with Delrin and machining it. It works very much like aluminum. I had Delrin bushings machined for my Pinto "B" sedan back in the early seventies (alright no jokes, it is now a valueable vintage racer!)
