3D model description

Same as the original, only customization is enabled (including the number of bearings).

Don't go below 3 bearings or above 6, it will look strange and it won't be useful. At least with the default size settings it will.

Main reason not to go above 6 bearings: The script times out (It won't if you open it in OpenSCAD though).

Also note that it might not be entirely symetrical at all number of bearings. So your results might vary.
I'll try to tweak it to be more stable later, if I find the time. I'm just a little worried that it might cause script timeouts, rendering it useless in the Customizer app here on Thingiverse...

I tweaked the script so the inner ring is only knurled if the number of bearings is below 7, since more than 6 outer bearings makes the inner knurling invisible anyway, so it seems like a waste of script-time to calculate it.
