There are some tools to create a Soas image from either an .iso or
just RPMs (well, an F10 system and lots of RPMs, anyway) at 

http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/soas/repos/mainline/trees/master

...and some rougher ones (but work for me, on my XO), at my clone
(notably, the livecd-iso-to-xo.sh):

http://git.sugarlabs.org/projects/soas/repos/mtds-clone/trees/master

There are no instructions I know of except: "use the 'build' script"
and ask on freenode.net's #sugar IRC channel, but sometimes it's even
just useful to know it's been done a few times already.  For example,
I was interested to know that you did it from Windows.
