How are the grooves for the thrust bearing cut?

I was wondering about that same thing. I've always been a fan of small wheels, especially when designing a swerve drive.
I have couple more questions too:
1. What's that pneumatic cylinder doing in your CAD render!? It really caught me off guard.
2. What is the experimental 3D printed part below your thrust bearing?
