Plus, the glass transition temperature (aka melting point) of ABS is just above 220°, whereas thermoplastics like KYDEX have a ductile temperature around 320° and a melting point of 390°. So if you tried to bake it, you'd probably wind up with a puddle of blaster goo and a bunch of unbent thermoplastic sheeting 😉 Yikes! Glad I didn't try that; thanks for setting me straight! (But if I ever try it anyway I'm gonna record it for youtube because that sounds friggin' hilarious!!)

And Elliottw's idea is great if you DID still want to "sculpt" it rather than "wrap" it; just fill with balsa wood pieces or styrofoam beads or thin slices of pool noodle or something.

And I've never worked with epoxy putty, but JB Weld or Shoe Goo might even work, if you wanted the end result to be really "grippy"...
