Anyway to make "Homemade" liquid gasses like nitrogen/oxygen or for extracting xenon? I don’t get much from the search engines.

You could buy a $10-20K small machine for making cryogenic liquids.  Building your own machine will present a problem, though.  Take a trip to your local university library and look through the Kirk-Othmer encyclopedia of technology, and look under nitrogen, liquid.  It will give you the entire process for making it.

liquidifying gas at home? Making liquid N2 is too hazardous. Try liquifying ammonia.. (bp shldnt be too low, but it's still liquifying gas technically)
