Thanks for your instructable.  I use a 35mm plastic film canister to measure the oil.  A canister holds about 1.1 ounces.  If I want 1 ounce, I just underfill it a little.  I also pour my measured oil into the gasoline container first.  Then I take the container to the filling station.  When the gasoline runs into the container from the hose, it is mixed quite well.  I have used an oil container like the one you show.  It works, but I am not sure it is that much handier than my film canister.  I do not need to worry about cleaning out the film canister, nor about keeping it clean.  I just put the cap back on it until I need it the next time.

As an afterthought, I also make a label with a labelmaker to indicate the ratio for each 2-cycle machine we have, and we have two.  That makes it easier to get past remembering which is 1:24 and which is 1:32.
