Is anyone good with a 3d printer?

Ive snapped the top/threaded lock of my frankford arsenal rotary tumbler.
Was wondering if this was somethingbthat could be 3d printed or not?

Which version? The "lite" or the other one?

I have the lite version and the lid looks possible to 3d print to me. It would take a good evening of modelling and a few test prints. What's it worth to you?

Any chance of glueing it back together with epoxy? That's what I would try first.

I've got a pretty tick Bambu lab printer and access to CAD software. If you want me to take a look just send me some photos and I'll see what I can do

Need photos and measurements to know for sure.

I'm presuming it's not screwed down tight, in which case 3D printing can definitely work. I've made replacement screws and fixings on the 3D printer and there is definitely a limit to the strength but they are good for a lot of things
