April 3, 201214 yr I figure it has to be around here somewhere. I am looking for the Sketchup Model for the single door pie safe that Charles Neil demonstrates building on YouTube here: If someone could please tell me where to find it, I would appreciate it. Searching online has turned up nothing except the two door style. Thank you. Milo No Ref
April 4, 201214 yr Milo, the only one I could find is the one on Charles's website at Pie Safe Sketchup. It's still the two door style.Also at Woodworking Plans Pie Safe. I am guessing you already saw those. But that's all I could find as well buddy.John MorrisThe Patriot WoodworkerProud Supporter of Wounded Warrior Project and Homes For Our Troops
April 5, 201214 yr I think it's hysterical that people who make You Tube videos go through the rigmarole of publishing disclaimers and safety warnings. There is absolutely no purpose served by such nonsense.  I'm sure that some people think that it has some force of law protecting them from some kind of liability, but it doesn't. It accomplishes nothing and it consumes time and effort and money.Such a law suit would not survive a 12(b)6 motion for summary judgment (or the state law equivalent). There simply is no exposure.The grounds for dismissal would include 1) Failure of Minimum Contacts for any one not in the producer's home state.2) Supervening Cause ( novus actus interveniens)3) Absence of Privity4) No Proximate Causal relationThere is absolutely zero chance that any lawsuit would get past any of that.ANYWAY::::: I though the pie safe in question was going to be a simple countertop box. That's what I think of when I think: "pie safe." A box with a lift off lid that have super fine screen mesh as windows to let air through but not drosophilia, house flies and mites.Actually I am a little stuck on the notion that such things as stand up full blown cabinets ever existed for pies. I mean who on earth would make that many pies? Maybe a baker?? But certainly not Mrs. Suzy Homemaker.Maybe "pie safe" is a misnomer. Maybe such cabinets served a much wider function? Maybe they put their bread and pies and other things that didn't need to be consumed immediately, but would attract insects while at the same time benefiting from free flow of air~?? Yah it has to be that. And today we call them pie safes?Anyway What will you use as the tin windows?  Aluminum anodized roofing flashing?What might be slick is salvage steel sheet tin coated ceiling tiles. They have nice patterns embossed on them, look old (coz they are) and have the right surface appearance.Â
April 5, 201214 yr Cliff,Come and visit South Central Pennsylvania!The Pennsylvania Dutch ladies bake enough pies and pastries to fill the largest pies safe. Which is why, I guess, the pie safe originated there.Cliff said:I think it's hysterical that people who make You Tube videos go through the rigmarole of publishing disclaimers and safety warnings. There is absolutely no purpose served by such nonsense.  I'm sure that some people think that it has some force of law protecting them from some kind of liability, but it doesn't. It accomplishes nothing and it consumes time and effort and money.Such a law suit would not survive a 12(b)6 motion for summary judgment (or the state law equivalent).

April 6, 201214 yr My baby makes the best pies in the world. I mean the absolutely best-est-er-est-iest of 'em all.On Thanksgiving & Christmas she may have as many as three a pumpkin, an apple, and a pecan. In Peach pie season she's usually got one available. She's made more, but they were made to be handed away to relatives lusting after one of their very own. So they didn't stick around.  They say cherry pie is America's most popular pie. I've never had a taste of cherry pie. The color puts me off.I used to like Chocolate pudding pie. Never developed a taste for the custard pies.
