Nice job man congrats on ur first dice session. Hopefully my first will come in the near future.

[Extera]

well done, nice and clean.
most people dont even have the gear needed on thier first run. Good gear is the key to succes

[Flow]

My next big project will be the same with LN2, I think. But first of all I need the equipment, and thats very expensive I think. What do I all need für LN2?
and how are the prices für a cheaply reveiver, which fulfills the conditions für a session?

thank you very much!

LN2 is a lot more expensive. The most expensive part is the dewar. You either need to rent one, or buy one. They can be upto a few thousand pounds for a good one. Then there is all the safety stuff that you should idealy have... gloves, goggles etc. LN2 itself in price varies a lot depending on where you live. Check with your local gas supplier.

buyd me a 30L dewar from waus-mod for only 320€ incl sending
here its about 2€ for a L off Ln² , minimum take is 20L .
dry ice is 3€ for a KG , minimum take is 5kg

[SoF]

what comes in my mind fits in one line: clean setup, good pictures - nice results

[Flow]

Thanks SoF

320€ for a dewar is still much money for a poor pupil, but it sounds better than a few thousends . Next holiday I'll work and earn some money, then I can directly look forward LN2

[Brettbeck]

@ blind_ripper - You're kidding me right ? Where'd you get a 30l dewar for €320 INC shipping?? That is really cheap for a dewar you know...

[Jort]

Waus-mod aka wouter got a good deal with a local Lab, and could buy the dewars pritty cheap.

I got mine 12L dewar for 100€ + ~ 20€ ship

[joe_cool]

Have a look at ebay for a cheap dewar.
I have bought a 30l one for me, only 70€ incl. shipping.

How come you add alcohole to the DICE and would that be IPA you add?

OMG ! Just €70?! eBay UK is no good for stuff like that. If we got them from abroad it would end up costing a crapload in import duties etc .

Dry ice pieces obviously won't have much contact with the pot, pete. That's why you add alcohol or something else. I did an investigation, and methanol has the highest thermal conductivity out of all the stuff you would try using for dry ice cooling. I think you would want low melting point (so dry ice won't be wasted on changing the medium's phase) and high thermal conductivity (duh).

You can get DI for 0.28€/kg

[goranm]

Ok.... it's sos expensive... but... here in argentina i can't find on anywhere!!!

You can use CO2 from bottle and make DI from liquid phase.

The Deware you rent at AGA or AirLuqid, that is the danish names.

Often you need securtity clearances and ALOT of different stuff to buy LN2.

Ln2 is almost 2½ x the price of Dry Ice.
20 Kg of dryice is only 50$

Gloves is cool, but plastic gloves are good enough. the ln2 will not even cool your fingers if it hits plastic. It is to coold to transfer "heat".

It will just "explode" and spray way.

Really nice pics there and clocks too
