I haven't seen this article, but I have delrin nuts made for my 3D printer ans CNC mechanism (project in progress), and they are OK.
(see here.. the black thing on the table)

Recently Chinese suppliers are selling lead screws + brass nuts on ebay for ~$13... I am using them for this project, they seem to be quite good.
