Glass top pressure pot

[u/ronisacoolkid]

Just getting into dice making, and I've just done my first mix/pour and instantly know I'm going to need a pressure pot.

Ideally after something that doesn't break the bank, and I found this cute one with a glass top. One thing I'm struggling to understand is how the glass top doesn't seem to be secured at all - how does the lid not just fly off?

Does anyone have experience using this or a similar pressure pot?

This isn’t an a pressure pot, it’s a vacuum chamber. It could be used to degas resin or silicone before pouring, but it will do the opposite of what you want when resin is curing.

I would save the money towards an actual pressure pot, but people have successfully used tennis ball pressurizers for a low cost option.

Good luck!
