Thanks for the detailed comments! I’m working on ways to make the cut lines better in the Ultralight fabrics… it’s pretty difficult on those thin fabrics. Thanks for the tip about placing the darker fabric under the tube fabric – I’ll add that to the instructions.
I’ll add a note to the pressure fit valve product page indicating that if people are planning to install them in a packraft they should choose “Pair + Inflation Bag Valve” from the drop-down menu. Looking back at your order, I see you had asked me to swap them in for the Boston valve in the kit, which is cool too. When I was packing it up I didn’t think about the inflation bag – I follow a checklist so I don’t have to use my brain, which works well except when it doesn’t… If you ever decide to place another order, remind me and I’ll add that extra valve for free.
Cheers!
