Neat! I think the next thing I would try is vacuum-forming. It would probably leave a much more attractive finish with fewer if any folds and overlapping sections.

Making bowls from vinyl records (LPs)
I've seen pictures of bowls made from vinyl records, and decided to try it myself. I have a colander and a stainless bowl that fit together pretty tightly, which is what I used to mold the records. I put one record at a time in the oven for a few minutes at 200*F. After the vinyl had softened, I put the record into the colander and forced the bowl down on top.
The record cools in a few seconds.
