I'm looking for some quality control from you who have used soft padeyes such as the ones Joe uses at Redfish Kayaks. I'm having trouble getting the flow even, resulting in some strange shaped flanges. I'm wondering if the flanges are too thin or too irregular to be reliable. I'm attaching some pictures. Comments would be appreciated.

Thanks

Mike
