Mixing cups
You don’t necessarily need these. I just used plastic drinking cups. Just make sure to test it before using to check if the resin will dissolve the plastic. I haven’t used the product below, but it is advertised specifically for mixing resin.

Quick disconnect – This is what I used, but I would not recommend. The wire isn’t 100% secure, and can be pulled out.
