Chris,
You *can* measure below the droplet level, very easily and precisely.
Proceed as follows:
1. Measure out 1 or 2 or 5 ml of resin into a graduated container.
2. Add one drop of dye; mix thoroughly.
3. Pour off some easily-measured fraction of the tinted resin into
your resin mixing batch. Cover the tinted-resin container for later
use.

Voila! If you poured off 1/5 of the tinted stuff, you have 1/5 of a
drop of dye, to the precision of your measuring cup or shot glass or
plastic medicine cup.

Regards, Steve
