valves chopped from inner tubes
Really? That's interesting, presumable you leave something of a rubber flat around them to stop them going though the valve hole? Do you add any extra tape to hold them on?
+1 for gorilla tape, its excellent because you tear to to the exact width of your rim to get the best seal. I did three wheels with it and Schwalbe vales at the weekend, all perfect.

Hmm yeah, I was wondering about the width. If I'm buying 50m of tape I might as well put it on all of my wheels (and my friends' wheels too) but then I need to have the right width for both a 29er and a road/gravel/touring/whatever thing.
Okay, so I'll go with Gorilla tape and whatever valves I can get (I have a few dead tubes I could use for now), what about sealant?
