I made a bearing based on TheGoofy's design, for my camera slider project because I didn't have metal bearings on hand.
The design can be found here: thingiverse.com/thing:2375124
While the design is great, my application wasn't one that could use it properly and this will serve as an example for people on the limitations of FDM printed bearings.
The stepper driver used here was a DRV8825 and the Arduino shield is the "CNC shield V3"
