This is an Azimuth bearing for the hadley telescope, if one is using a flat wooden/hdf/mdf base.
The cupped part goes on the underside of the telescope board, and the part with the three nubs goes on the base. One can experiment by adding a little wax or WD40 to reduce friction, but I did not have any issues printing with PETG.
I tested on an Ender 3KE, PETG, 0.2 layer height, 40% infill, 4 walls, and faced no problems.
The top - cupped portion is glued to the underside, while the bottom ring with holes can be screwed or glued to the base. In the attached photo, the mount is not visible, but one can get a basic idea of how it works.
