This is the first and only pot I've made so far.

I made it from scraps and stuff I was able to snag at work and it actually works decently, just not as well as the pro-made pots you guys use and not nearly as pretty either I admit.
As for the height, I did that on purpose to help control accidental acetone boilovers, the extra height and the fact the tube gets wider in diameter towards the top really helps with that. No, I haven't used it but a couple of times since I made it and it's mounted to this day on the board pictured with it.
DICE for me isn't exactly easy to get since I must drive 60+ miles round trip just to get it and that's alot of expense just to use it at all with the price of gas nowadays. Anyway, here it is and at least I do have one if I ever decide to use it again one day.
As for LN2, forget that - I'd have to go even further and I don't even own a dewar or anything like that for LN2.
