There are a number of ways to do this, but how exactly are you using it to slide?
I would drill a hole in the channel and the delrin and then just bolt it on, but it seems to me like you are not going to have space for a bolt.
I just read the rules on the Hardware rules and it doesn't seem legal But I would asked this on the Q&A anyway.
If you used counter-sinking screw heads you could get the flat surface your looking for if you machined the sheet a little more.
And one last thing I can think of is, you can bend the delrin around and attach on the sides of this mechanism if possible.
Thats what I got for now
