I do the same but have several 2 - 1 mixtures. Larger ones for glassing and smaller for little jobs. I collect those little Dunkin Donuts & McDonalds coffee creamer cups and they work good for measuring out smaller mixtures. I buy RAKA which comes in large jugs. I save my dish detergent plastic bottles and pour the epoxy in those so it's easier pouring than a large jug.

There's really no need for weighing out mixtures. Just measure out some 2 - 1 trial mixtures with water and mark the vessels. Just don't get the mixtures backwards.
