I was looking at this steam-bending thing in the Rockler catalog:

It's a thing, it makes steam, it shoots out a hose. And I'm looking at it, and thinking, if you had a couple of hubcaps, like 12" around and rounded up into domes - not steep domes, just domes, there must be millions of them in junkyards just waiting for something exciting to happen. You just drill a bunch of little holes in the bottom one, take your maple plywood sheet that you cut to be Starcaster-shaped, but a little bigger (to account for the dome) then you put the other secular (non-holey) hubcap on top and weigh it down with some bricks or clamp it ... go chase the old lady around the bedposts or something, all you have to do is refill the tank every few hours (the steamer's not the old lady's - perv). They include plans to make a steamer box that you can used to bend wood to make toys! Shaker boxes! chairs! whatever, you're not going to need chairs anyway once you build your Starcaster because it'd be so light.
