Is it possible to 3D Print a VersaPlanetary Gearbox with a dual input. If so how and is there a CAD file online?
I have seen teams use them before, like the 1986 motor mount for their shooter. I know they are sold out on VEX PRO, but West Coast has them on back order. I am not sure if there are other retailers that sell them but 3D printing them should be pretty reliable if you have a good design.
I assume you’re talking about this: https://www.vexrobotics.com/vexpro/motion/gearboxes/217-3141.html
I suppose you could print the case based on the models posted by VEX but that would not get you the hardware and gears that are inside it. I don’t know if you’d be able to source the gears from somewhere else. I have not seen anything similar and suspect they are custom.

You could probably print the housing using the models on VEXs website, I don’t think I would print the gears though due to the loads involved.
