Thanks! I will definitely look into getting one of these... especially since I am hoping Mowgli’s doses will get smaller not larger ;)

I used the light box and also a lighted magnifier. I actually was thinking of selling my light box. I don’t need it any more and someone here could probably use it.

No apology needed! I was just teasing, I would definitely rather you say you didn't know the answer :)

Yes...I know you were :p A lot of times I couch my answer not just for you but those who read but don’t post. I found once that I said something in a joking manner that someone took seriously and repeated :confused:

The 0u line itself is going to vary on every single syringe even in the same box. On my syringes, when first measuring, I pushed the syringe in as far as it would go and then used the very top of that (towards the needle) as my stationary 0u line and measured from there to 1u. That never varied.

I’m glad Wendy popped in to offer some more thoughts! Good luck, girlie!!! You can do it:joyful:

Thanks Marje!! Just wanted to make sure you knew I wasn't being a little brat ;) It's hard to read tone from text so I can understand why you want to make sure that no one misinterprets what your're saying.

We're two doses in and last night went pretty good after all the feedback I got for consideration yesterday, very VERY helpful. This morning it was... ... ... early :P

Sometimes it just takes me a bit to catch on to the logic before I really really get it. I think getting craft glasses and better calipers might work for me. The calipers I got are great and would have worked for higher doses but they're a little clumsy for the Canadian BD Ultra fines. I'm going to take a look at the mastercraft ones Nikki has, they seem to have nice little pinchers on the top :D

I am thankful for everyones contribution to my understanding yesterday :D

Oh I wish we had the old emojis here. They were better because we had a jiggly, laughing one. I would never think you were a brat! You are correct about tone in messages :rolleyes:

I’m glad it went better. We have such a great amount of experience with folks using calipers now. When I first started doing it and did the post, there wasn’t as much general knowledge about the different syringes. Thankfully, Wendy is one sharp cookie and had no problem figuring out those BDs for the great benefit of everyone else.

BTW, I love the figures you did. When I get around to updating the calipers post, could I please use one for the BDs? :bighug::bighug::bighug:

Definitely! Let me know when the time comes, and you can specify exactly what you want, that way I can make one that is done in less of a rush ;) I am always happy to help :joyful:

PS I would LOVE to have a jiggly laughing emoji... there aren't any in the bank that I feel truly capture how hilarious some of the things I post are :P

Thank you! I will. It will probably be Sept as we are getting ready to go to Scotland in Aug for almost a month.

I am SO JEALOUS!! I’ve heard amazing things about Scotland!! Seriously. Never a negative review. One of my friends even eloped there!!

It’s amazing. We were there May 2018 for a little over two weeks and decided we had to go back and extend it. It’s so beautiful and the people are so friendly. How wonderful to get married there!!!!!
