My uncle is a taxidermist and he uses a 2 part foam to make forms for 
his mounts. The foam is mixed from two chemicals which react and 
expand rather quickly. The density of the foam is determined by how 
well it is contained in the mold. If one were to create a torroid 
type mold, you could probably mold one pretty easily. Any surface 
defects could be remedied using a slow turning lathe setup and some 
sandpaper or home made turning tool..

Then you've got your foam torroid ready for coating..

Just my 2 cents..

   What does that stuff cost [per cubic inch or foot of foam]?
