Welcome to the Downs, cookieman. I hope you enjoy being Dead. The connection of Tom Bombadil to Aulë is a new idea to me, which is quite refreshing since just about every other idea has already been forwarded here at the Downs. The long and the short of it though is that Tolkien apparently wanted Bombadil to be an enigma and refused to explain what he is. As Goldberry said, "He is."
