A knotty problem for my r'shimat chaverim

rhuThe tzitzit on my arba kanfot have deteriorated to the point where I need to replace them. The begadim themselves are in fine shape.
Does anyone out there have experience with replacing the tzitzit?
There are lots of web pages, not to mention pages in The Jewish Catalog, that give instructions, but they seem to take the position that the reason to tie your own tzitzit is to be more connected with the mitzvah. That doesn't answer my question: is it worth doing it myself to save the money and not waste perfectly good begadim, or am I going to get really frustrated and be dissatisfied with the end result?
