I did it myself several times- its quite easy to do. I got a sleeving kit from Kitty hawk kites and even sewed them with my wifes sewing machine!

done a ton myself
dacron 1/8 '' and a guitar string and 15 minutes...all fresh
the dacron makes great pig tails and great for just about any line component and it's 500lbs.
Awindof change has some tutorials that are great.
i haven't done the sewn type before, only the fig. 8 knots loops and splice

On my old DIY'd stunt kites, I pulled the soft guts out of braided nylon line from the erm DIY store and used that :D I wasn't trusting my neck to my
stunters though ...
