    I've got a project I've also been wanting to get done, but have no idea where to start or how to get a model/mold(s) made. It's an old street lamp that used to signal where the old street cars here in town (in a bygone era) used to stop to pick up passengers. They're not being replaced when they get hit by automobiles or knocked over. Word is they're pretty expensive to replace so they are slowly disappearing.

    I would like to create a small replica of them, possibly a desktop, night light, or even a nearly full size floor lamp but I have no idea how to get a scalable model(s) made, where in China to go to get them manufactured, or what any of this might cost.

    I uploaded photos of some of them around town you can see here. http://imgur.com/a/3FaGp

    Any leads, advice, or direction on where to start would be most appreciated. If I need a 3D model to get molds made, I would be interested in getting this done as a starting point. It seems to me I would at least need something like that first, but I've never done anything like this before.

    Thanks in advance!
