Summary

This thing makes fake miniature glass lamp shades for DIY dolls house lights made from bent copper. Ideally you will need a 3D printer to do this, but it's the IDEA that counts here, and you could easily make this without a printer.

The idea is to make a little rubber former, which is made using this mould. So you print the mould twice, put the two halves together and fill them with silicone.

The silicone part is removed from the mould and placed into a piece of clear electrical heat shrink tubing.

Heat the tube while the silicone is in place, remove the silicone when the tube has shrunk and formed a shape, trim the heat shrink tube.

It's simple, quick and looks great.
