U may also make hexagonal hole for round objects. Its hold steady yet gives enough tolerance

Somebody please tell me what is the name of these types of ball bearings ? It's really hard to find online.

Just chuck the bearing in the freezer

Do a 45 degree phase , place the ball bearing on the fridge or freezer for at least 1 h , let the plastic sit in the 3d print bed Eiter by 40 to 50 degrees pla or 60 to 80 petg then press every thing together. I did and can not take the bearing out😂

To the designers coming from engineer, this is okay for low load bearings like this kind of 3d prints. Normally this fins can be problem and make your bearing uneeficient but it is perfectly fine this kind of small projects!

Would you do something similar for the shaft?

Un poco de pistola de calor y listo

I think it might introducing non center ball bearing.

What do you use for your modeling? Where's a good place to start

Enter the metal After justification. ❄️ freeze

No tolerance issues here, but good to know, thanks!

Really good idea. Could export the cutout shape and use it as a modifier inside the slicer. Cheers

Solve the problem by using a blunt object, ustilising kinetic energy to violently press it in there!(no but jokes aside, assuming its decently designed, you can whack it in there and have a nice and snug pressfit!

A great T-bone solution! Thanks for sharing
