Test-Tube Hydrometer, Shot-Loaded and Calibrated (Boy Mechanic, 1915)
A hydrometer for specific gravity made from two test tubes: the small one, weighted with shot set in plaster and corked, floats in the liquid held in the large one, and the depth it sinks is read against marks copied from a bought hydrometer.

Mount the jar
Mount the jar
Take two test tubes, one able to hold the other. Stand the large one upright in a hole bored in a small block of wood: it holds the liquid.

Load the float
Load the float
Put shot or other heavy metal in the bottom of the small tube until it floats upright: almost wholly under water if it is for liquids heavier than water, only just upright if for lighter ones. Fix the load with a little plaster of Paris.

Mark the water line
Mark the water line
Float it in the large tube filled with pure water (rain water will do, distilled is better) and file a small mark level with the surface. In lighter liquids the mark sinks below the surface; in heavier ones it rises above.

Calibrate
Calibrate
Float your tube and a borrowed hydrometer in the same liquid and mark your tube to match its readings. Starting with a heavy liquid, add water little by little; both float lower each time, giving more marks.
