Anyway, the drilling and tapping is not a problem and a hell of an
idea!

Perhaps what Bob was talknig about but I'd try a very small bolt. Drill
through the hub only, insert the bearing buddy, and then screw the bolt
into the side of the hub through the hole. I'd not apply too much
pressure.
I point out the bolt as opposed to an actual screw.



Use an allen head set screw. They are built for this and have a point. As
to launching with no bearing buddy, Cut a coke can in 1/2 and it slips
right over the hub. Put a piece of duct tape around if you want even more
protection.
