Mixing a color scale

I have been thinking of making my own color scale and tubing it, and here is what I came up with.

I made a copper measuring cup divided in 20 steps with a divider to hold the paint. Each step contains 4,5 ml, and the full cup contains 90 ml.

This is a testing model and I can easily make another size to make it fit available tube sizes.

I load the colors direct from the tube and scrape off with the palette knife to make an even fill up. Then I lift up the divider and fill the rest of the cup with the other mixing color. Take it out, mix and tube.
