: I use one syringe for resin and one for hardener. Measure up one inch for
: resin and one half inch for hardener. Pump dirctly into the top of the
: syringe and insert the plunger. Squirt into a mixing cup and mix. As long
: as you don't mix up the two you don't even have to clean them until your
: boat is finished.

I go one step further, and learned it from another Bill. I picked up two pic-nic ( mustard and ketsup ) bottles with the pointy squirt tips, and two child ( medicine ) syringes. They fit down into the tops of the plastic bottles perfectly and they are graduated by either tsp. or ml. I keep them upside down in the bottles all the time and when I need a fix..... mix for small glueing, I just turn them upside down and draw out the proper amount of resin and shoot it into a small glass jewelite ( glass candle holder ) and then do likewise with the hardener. Put the syringes back into the bottle when done and since you can only do one at a time, you generally always get them back into the proper bottle. ( so far ) Keep your filler handy and just mix and go. No muss, no fuss! I keep a roll of paper towels handy to wipe out the jewelite and stir stick to keep things neat and tidy. Trying to mix up a tsp. and a half of glue from anyones pumps is a lesson in futility. Of course, I still have the gallon jugs with pumps for the other stuff, but..... for a couple of small glue-ups, nothing works better than the mustard/ketsup and baby syringes.
