Hi all, I could use some help. I need to replicate a fairly obscure size/shape switch boot. I need it to be exactly like the one I have but in a bright red. I’ve tried coloring these but not had much luck.

-Can anyone here make some of these for me?? I’m happy to pay you!

  • Alternatively if you know of a place I can get small batches done quick that would work.

I have several so I can send you one (or more) to make a casting from…

Trying to make the Stranger Things light look like the Union Carbide one??

Out of curiosity, have you considered 3D printing? There’s a few varieties of colored TPU filament, one of them has gotta be an approximate match.

A 3D printed mould would be better, FDM isn’t the best when it comes to fatigue or waterproofing. You can also polish the mould to get an even finish on the part and just use generic silicone epoxy to fill it.
