We report on the construction and performance of a home-built viscometer employing a quartz tuning fork resonator as the sensing element. The resulting device allows measuring the viscosity of uids in volumes as low as 300 μl, while controlling the temperature between -120 °C and 150 °C. For non-conducting uids, bare tuning forks can be used, reaching the accuracy of 1% or better in the whole temperature range. For weakly conducting uids such as aqueous solutions, an insulating coating of paint is applied, resulting in reduced sensitivity and accuracy. The capabilities and limitations of the viscometer are illustrated on the viscosity measurements of n-hexane (between -90 °C and +50 °C) and water (between 10 °C and 90 °C). Improvements regarding performance in conducting liquids and temperature stabilization are discussed
