Has anyone experimented with making copies of these with your own super reed or mpc, as local 3D shops are opening up for retail, walk-in customers ?

3D printing builds copies in plastic, not the original material. I doubt that you could substitute hard rubber for plastic, or that the process would reproduce the interior. I doubt even more that it would reproduce a cane reed. You would have to grind up the cane.
3D printing has produced gun parts, but they're only good for one shot. Perhaps your mouthpiece and reed would be good for a single note.
