Same here - a kit version! Spent a Thursday afternoon during a school holiday in a friend's kitchen cutting out the pieces, gluing them together, gluing on the zip on and tape along all the seams and sewing all the lining on the seams inside. It was for an intended caving trip on the weekend and they didn't have a ready made suit in the shop that would fit me.
We turned up at the agreed meeting point with a caving club my friend was a member of and there was no room in the van for us so we didn't go!
Still, I got plenty of use from that wetsuit, with plenty of patches, in the following years.
