I've been messing around with steam-baking recently, trying to make enough for a breakfast for two in one go, and have just been making inner pots on demand with foil. Then I stumbled across some heavier looking foil pot-pie/tart pans and was wondering if anyone had used them? It seems like if they're able to be re-used a few times they'd be just the ticket.

Yes. I use Hefty EZ Foil Cake Pans –
The larger smooth bottom, without all the folding of the sides, works well for forming.
I cut off the rim then shape them around a form, usually a roll of duct tape that has been reduced in diameter to create the perfect fit in the pan of choice.
If you want to be real clever, form an "over fitting" lid first, then strip off enough duct tape to create a slightly small "pan".
