Hi Mike, that would be great. If I could get a range of sizes I'd be sorted. Any idea where I could try? I've tried my local chemist, but they only do 5 ml, which, although better than nothing would reduce accuracy were I to use one to measure 55 ml 5 ml at a time.
                thanks,
                   John.

John,

They come in many sizes, I had syringes years ago before I lost my sight and
they held 300mls. My brother and I used them as super soakers!

Hi Jo, thanks for the tip. Waht range of sizes do syringes come in? Could I
get one that'd measure, for instance, 55 ml, or are they just for very small
quantities.

Sometimes I'd need to measure a few ml, and sometimes 20 or 30 ml or
whatever.
                 thanks,
                    John.

John

I have used a syringe for measuring medicine for Children.  You have
to get a notch put in the plunger of the syringe and pull it out to the
notch.  I usually had the notch put at 5 mil but my dog is on a liquid
medication and that notch is at 3 mil. You would need sighted help for this
but after that you would be able to measure the liquid yourself.

Hope that helps

Jo

Hi everybody, does anyone know of an accessible way of measuring
small quantities of liquid? The only measuring aids I've ever heard of or
come across are for measuring relatively large quantities. A measuring spoon
wouldn't be any good, as I'd be measuring out of a bottle, need to be
accurate and don't want spillage or to have to gauge level with my finger,
which I'd usually do with liquids.
  Hope someone can help,
                  thanks,
                    John.
