* I have plenty of syringes, bought from [http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Acuflow?_rdc=1 acuflow]. These work very well for measuring, I will bring some in. Although a flask is best for watching the titration, I have used a [http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GRADUATED-SIMAX-MEASURING-CYLINDER-100ml-/200515125077 measuring cylinder] and found it convenient for both measuring the etchant and mixing in the NaOh. They can be obtained from wine / beer making shops. - artag
