These are designed to work with 3/8" balls, 0.230" diameter carbon fiber rods, and cylindrical magnets which are 10mm in diameter and 15m high.
These can be printed with a layer height of 0.2mm or 0.1mm.
Use a shell thickness of 2mm, so that all of the walls will be printed with concentric circles, instead of back-and-forth infill.
For PLA, use a relatively low temperature, like 185C, so that the overhang inside of the ball bearing sockets comes out as cleanly as possible.
