Having a few small projects to do over Winter, I'm seeking others input on how they measure resin in small quantities; say, less than 3 oz.?
Too small, given the viscosity, for graduated containers. Would try pumps; but haven't found any with the accuracy at miniscule amounts.
So.... how do *you* measure small amounts?
Scales? Measuring spoons (icky!)? Mark 1 eyeball?? Then how do ya get alla the goo offa the utensil?
Even at wholesale rates, it sure seems a waste to make up four times as much needed to get an accurate mix. Having a few small projects ready to go at the same time seems to work; but then running out mid-point isthe norm
I'mk thinking a "drizzler", sorta like those honey dealies that drip as much as ya want into your tea to dispense into//onto some sorta mixing container that can be quantified and utilize alla tthe well-mixedresin. Nothing likeusinc plastic cups and having un-mixed resin in tthe bottom; but only finding out when a section of goo doesn't cure! :redface:
What's yer process?
TIA,
Paul
