Al,
These may be what you referred (cough medicine cup). I really like these cups:

I have used them for several builds and they are cheap and disposable. I bought mine at Tap Plastics but I'm sure they are available at a pharmacy. In fact maybe I will by some more since I still have a few bucks left in my Flexible Spending Account /medical savings account that I need to spend. I figure it is health related because building boats reduces stress. Maybe get some surgical tubing for making lures, also. After all, fishing is therapeutic as well.
I find them to be very accurate for small batches and have mixed numerous 15 ml batches for small jobs and all have cured properly. The times I have messed up, i later realized i mixed up which was the hardener and which was the resin, usually due to an interruption in the process by my 3 year old.
