Yes, model railroaders sometimes make molds (usuall using silicon RTV) and
castings of small parts. Check your local hobby shop or www.micromark.com
(also a good source of small tools for the hobby).

Plastic/metal replacement computer parts,
I'll bet the train hobbyists have some knowledge about recreating
metal/plastic parts for computers. I have seen articles about how they have
created/machined/cast entire trains from raw materials.
