Affixed with cooking wax or elmers gku and taped and then allowed to fuse: will they make a thicker trunk/stem and grow out more tree-like?

Grafting is not generally done on Pussy Willows, as they grow very quickly from cuttings.
Your branching technique as described is interesting, though I don’t feel it would work with all these branches.
Also the use of cooking wax or elmers glue would not be advisable.
This link has information on grafting tree branches.
