Follow me on Pinshape: http://pinshape.com/users/27920-jsirgado To Ensure Proper Functionality: Use metallic spheres as they are readily available, affordable, and easy to adjust. For reference, the provided bearing design uses 2mm diameter spheres with a height of 25mm and a diameter of 20mm, compatible with an 8mm shaft. Clarifications: "Bearing Internal Diameter" refers specifically to the shaft diameter. The number of spheres directly affects the number of channels available for them. Calculate the number of spheres in line based on the bearing's height. Important Reminder: This is a Plastic 3D printed bearing, not designed for high-load or high-speed applications. It may also pose safety risks if used with small parts near children.
