    摘要: Methods of forming a stationary housing of a rotatable cutting element for use on an earth-boring tool may include forming one or more annular recesses extending around an outer surface of a first sleeve, inserting the first sleeve within a second sleeve, joining the first sleeve with the second sleeve, and removing a portion of material from an inner surface of the first sleeve to expose the annular recesses. Methods may also include forming a first portion and a second portion of a sleeve, forming an annular recess around an entire perimeter of an inner surface of each of the first portion and the second portion of the sleeve proximate a longitudinal end thereof, and bonding the longitudinal ends of the first portion and the second portion of the sleeve along an interface therebetween. Stationary housings formed from such methods are also provided.
