   The photo is misleading.   
      
   The item pictured has a "mixing extension" (that tapered tube on the   
   right side of the image can be affixed to the dispensing end).   
      
   It does a wonderful job mixing but is a one-time use.  I used a   
   similar dispenser when epoxying bolts into the slab, here.  But,   
   there, expected to use much of the tube (the tube being the size   
   of a tube of caulk!) to secure the hardware into the floor (onto   
   which I could anchor the sill plate of the wall I was building).   
   Trying to mix and dispense OUNCES of epoxy in correct proportions   
   is frustrating so worth the one-time mixing dispenser.   
      
   The black cap on the left side can be used to seal the dispensing   
   end.  In some applicators, there are two nozzles side-by-side and   
   the cap has *two* separate cavities to ensure the two nozzles   
   remain separated.   
      
   Model airplane glue is also surprisingly useful to keep on hand!
