Idea for measuring epoxy

[Hmathews]

For anyone that uses Brownell's acraglas epoxy and needs to mix small amounts this is a method that we have found to be accurate and it saves wasted epoxy. It is just two marinade injectors that have been marked with a 1/8 inch scale on the side and filled with the resin and hardener. Grind off the sharp end of the needle and save the point protectors the injectors are shipped with. Seal one end of the point protectors by pinching with a dab of superglue, acts as a great cap for the injector. Hope some of you can use this idea. It is saving us a bunch of epoxy.

Great idea, Harry. Thanks!

Good idea harry. I use throw away syringes.

That will work great for G2 as well. I always wonder if I'm getting the proper 2:1 ratio of glue to hardener.

Thanks for the idea.

I weigh mine on a scale.

The epoxy I use has a weight ratio on the box...........

I use acraglass and will be sure to put this to use. Thanks!

good Idea Harry. I have posted this on here several times in the past but without pictures. I use syringes for dispencing cildrens nedicine from the drug store. they are marked off in cc and have a cap that fits on the end. I have been using one pair for the last four or five years.
