I have an 8-tap keezer, and I need tap handles. I'm looking for a DIY option so that I don't spend $200+, and I'd like to use a baseball like the attached picture. I've also included a picture of my current tap, which is one of the basic ones off of amazon.
What's the best way to go about making this? Do I need a Ferrule and Hanger Bolt set like this?

Or do I just use a threaded insert like this?

Either way, they both look like 3/8". Do I just use a vice press to hold the baseball, then use a 3/8" drill bit? And it won't unravel the string on the inside of the baseball?
