My other suggestion, and maybe you already do this, is to squeeze them twice. After you do both halves, put them in together and do it again. Gets a bit more juice out of them. At least with the hand juicer. My stand juicer obliterates them. Nothing left.
Like you Swank, I too squeeze em twice. After the initial squeeze I set em in a bowl next to my cutting board. I let em rest a few minutes and have gotten more than a half ounce out of 3 or 4 “shells”
This next tip might be common knowledge. With the half lime cut side down I make a half inch cut in the unsqueezed lime . My barkeep bud swears you’ll get more juice this way. I don’t do this when Mai Tai’s are on the menu. Can’t use the shell for garnish-It’s useless.
