@uncle_bob,
I would first try tapping it through the bearing, brass would be easier.
If that doesn't work, sand or file a little off, spin it in a drill.
There isn't a bearing for the 13.7 mm threaded tubing, and it will be be too loose in an ID. 15.00 mm bearing.
What polymer, or filament do you have in mind that can print objects that large?

I assume the idea is to more or less crush fit the bearings on the pipe (17 mm bearing ID and 17.14 mm pipe OD)

what's a good cheap / easy bearing for the 1/4 IP stuff at 0.540" (13.716 mm) ? R10 or 1633 maybe?

I am talking about a printer that can print a very roomy tent.
