How to transfer liquid nitrogen to a smaller container?

Hey all,

I'm wondering if any of you have tips on how to transfer liquid nitrogen from a large dewar (50+ liters) to a smaller container. I'd like to avoid purchasing a pricey withdrawal device because its outside my budget at the moment. 

Thanks in advance!

This was one of my concerns when wanting to investigate LN and part of he reason for choosing a smaller dewar (20-25L). For 50+liters, I would recommend a liquid withdrawl device - see http://www.cookingissues.com/primers/liquid-nitrogen-primer/ or a second set of arms. :-)
