My daughter has been making some progress on the pie safe. She has gotten it almost to where you can tell what it is going to be. She has finished punching one of the panels and is working on another.
I have a question, are there anyShe has finished punching one of the panels and is working on another.
I would love to hear some ideas.
By the way, the panel was punched using a sharpened nail and a hammer. I thought it came out good.




We opted for a bread box opening at the top. I’ve never seen one with that, and it seemed practical. I am always glad to hear ideas and tips, so please comment if you feel the need. Thanks.

Great looking project. I like the classic look and the punched tin looks great. Looking forward to seeing the finished pie safe.
