The Parametric Caged Roller Bearing V3 is a free printable 3D model from Thingiverse by BrienAllison. UPDATE (17/08/2023): I have increased the default "slice_gap_closing_radius" to 0.04 as Prusa Slicer was ignoring the gap below this size (and updated the default bearing stl. You can download the STL file from the original listing below and print it at home.
