... interestingly I have yet to find a complete answer as to how one would use the Part Design Workbench to do the second part of Roland's 12th Ball Bearing tutorial in FC 0.18

You won't do this completely in PartDesign. Each ball would have to be a separate body. For the repition of the balls you would use Draft->Array in its polar form.
