Default Mixing *Really* Small Batches Of Resin?

Mixing up, say, an ounce or less of resin and getting the
resin/catalyst ratio right (especially with epoxy) escapes me....
so I waste a lot of resin.

Anybody got a system?


A trip to your local restaurant supply house where you buy a sleeve of
1 OZ and 2 OZ plastic cups.

About 100 pcs/sleeve.

Add some Popsicle sticks and you are good to go.

I routinely mixed up 3/4 OZ (epoxy 4:1 ratio) batches by eyeball using
the above.

Next problemgrin.
