To the two-part moulded pieces, use glue suitable for plastic materials, align the pieces correctly and allow to dry.
Insert the stick into the globe, insert the globe holder into the base and insert the globe into the holder. Check that the globe rotates freely.
Use a 3 mm or similar rod of 124 mm in length is required as a rod for the globe
Use a 3 mm diameter and 124 mm long stick (e.g. a wooden skewer or similar) to through the globe. If you do not have one, print and use the rod included in the STL files.
Be sure to mount the halves of the 3d-printed parts correctly and in alignment, otherwise rotation of the globe may be difficult.
