Cheers for links. Well, I contacted him and he replied:
I adjust the loose in the hubs during production through appropriate dimensions of the axle and body of hub.
I can remove the loose in your hub, but I need the best your hub or at least only the axle.
Also you can give me the dimensions of your axle (look at photo) with tolerance 0,01mm. I will make for you new axle.
You can ride without any problem with this loose because it doesn't influence the durability of the hub at all.
Very helpfull guy, so I think I will remove the axle and send it back to him. Must be a slightly dodgy bearing fitting but as he says you can still ride it fine.
