Expanding the city's with a heat gun could also give you varied effects. Just look up blu-ink's Skyrim axe for a good description

Had a friend follow a similar mind set but used an exercise ball the EVA and the heat in a parked car to shape it. She then finished it mostly the same (though she went for WW vice Cap) but didn't mention layers of glue, I think that's a great suggestion.

I used to make this back at a Nature Center I grew up around. We had a maple syrup day and would tap the tree the old fashioned way and collect the sap in a bucket move it to the boiler. Boil the water off (40 gallons of sap to make one gallon of syrup, so it takes a while) and then use the syrup to boil it more. One of my favorite experiments/demonstrations I did was having a trough carved in wood, adding the syrup and boiling it with hot rocks (took a lot of rocks, and a lot of cycling through the rocks). Either way glad to see this old recipe come back.

been looking for a good write up to make some. I think I still have the glow and shoji paper (although it may be the plastic lined one) at the house

I thought of a similar system to allow cycling and continual warming for a bath...have yet to build it but this helps me refine my ideas and gives me some code to base mine off. Thanks.
