For very small amounts of resin, any weight method could be
approximate and a bit of a nuisance. I found it handy to use a 50/50
mix laminating epoxy (from hobby stores or Home Depot in the U.S.) for
the numerous little _non-structural_ needs, like where I need a little
just a little bit flox or micro, or a little splash layup to make
whatever. 50/50 you can eye, using plastic picnic spoons, two tiny
dixie cups, etc.
BTW, if you run short on the 420 structural adhesive, PTM&W (the
Aeropoxy people) sells ES6279, again for less than primary structure
needs to play safe. 50/50 mix, fast cure, good adhesion.
