I have been using the same trick for pressing in the crumbs for years, works like a charm. I use a 9 inch pie plate roughly putting in the crumbs then place an 8 inch pie plate firmly on top pressing down. Perfect piecrust every time in one minute. You can also do a 10 inch with a 9 inch. It's the only time I use my Pyrex pie plates but it is worth having them just for the ease of making graham cracker crusts.
