Seeing as we have a brand spanking new area for pedal stuff, might as well post my efforts.

I think my favourite is the 'Ducky von Quackenstein' - it still makes me laugh when I look at it.

So Matt the Brutalist pedal looks awesome and I want one...
I was thinking you might get a more consistent and result if you used a Hebel block - they cut with handsaws and I bet you could use a router on them... you'd have to toss the bit of course

You showed me these the other day and I'm with Simon I love the duck heads on the Ducky Von Quackenstein.
Cool looking pedals, I like the one that looks like it's casing is made from concrete (Brutalist), and that one in a clear case looks cool too.
Those pedals are a great example of what you can achieve by building DIY pedals, each one is unique, I think it's a great way to personalize your FX pedal board.

The clear cases were a few of my early efforts - a word of warning though, if you use a case that isn't metal, you might want to put shielding inside, and make sure any metal switches and pots are grounded. That plastic case pedal I built picks up the local radio station when you touch the switches.
