A glue pot is essentially a small pot for you to transfer a bit of your glue into it. So if it dries up from opening and closing, at least the amount of glue that dried isnt as substancial as a whole tin of glue. (Its more cost effective to buy them in larger amounts of you do this craft often enough.) And the fancier ones are coated with teflon, so its easier to clean up.

I personally prefer using "pots" than squeeze bottles. Personally feel more in control with a brush than a nozzle. If there a big surface area to cover. Use a big brush. If its a small seam. Small brush. And i prefer brushes simply because its easier to get a thin coat of glue on your workpiece. So that way, your glue ain't gonna get in the way of your burnishing.

And i would believe any old thinner would suffice. Cause i've been mixing random brands of contact cements and thinner and still gotten pretty good results. Either im one lucky guy, or they all have similar solvents.

I thin Barge with Barge thinner.  I use a glue bottle with a brush in it, it keeps the glue better, longer as it closes up tight.  You can shake it to mix it and they are inexpensive.  Panhandle leather carries or did carry them.
