I think you may have the solution.

That super peel looks pretty sweet!!
I hear the dough sticks to metal peels much more so than wooden. That's why some people have two peels, a wooden for loading, and a thin metal for retrieving.
My peel is made of a composite material (it's the same stuff used as the ramp surface at skate parks -

If I build the pie first, then I make a mess trying to get it onto the peel. And then, I end up throwing flour all over the inside of the oven. So the cheater parchment paper method works well for me haha.
And, it prevents catastrophes like this.
