Drink beer and surf the internet,

Yes 3D printer way too slow, feed material quite expensive also, great for low volume specialty, I still prefer a machined part over 3D (automated hot melt glue gun).

I think most of the moulding has gone south of you or way west, if it is softer materials it can possibly be roto moulded or blow moulded, not sure if any of that industry is still around.

Should be able to find some local moulders still around but probably at a premium. If you find a mould-making shop they will usually know who can run the part, not usually the same company.
