I use medical syringes to measure out acraglass for tangs. It's a 4 to 1 ratio mixture, so I use a 3cc syringe to measure 1/2cc of hardner and a 10cc to measure 2cc of resin. that's just enough for one slab and spacer. When you go to the pharmacy or Dr's office to get syringes, ask for the non luer lock type (the needle just friction fits on instead of locking) Don't store them right together, the vapor from the hardner will make the resin get sticky. Other than that, they last for quite a while.
