Any thing that can self oscillate is great for noise, and even better when combined with a filter like a xerograph deluxe and some delay. You may want to check out the ilovefuzz board, there is some random stuff on there from time to time, and those guys seem to like noise. Also look into circuit bent stuff and drone or Buddha boxes.
As far as pedals
Look at copilot's stuff I had an orbit for a while.
Look at eqd, and dwarfcraft's line too the great destroyer is a good one, I've been enjoying mine. Pm me and I'll record some noise clips later tonight or tomorrow.
Writing new songs by myself really makes it apparent that I need to practice playing guitar more. Not very high on my priority list, but it took me 1-2 takes to lay down a bass track and I got about 20+ takes in on trying to get guitars down last night, before I just put it down to go hang out with the wife.

This thing is actually tempting of doing a Bill Me Later if i'm able...I wonder if just making it a fretless would resolve the issues.

Well Corey, I got your Rat Tail in a roundabout fashion. Just bought it from the guy you sold it to, and it was sent back to Ryan for a feedback footswitch

If you are gonna go and rip out the frets ( and basically butcher it ) you should just defret it level the board and refret it. I had to actually change the board out on one of my Rics because someone did a hack job defretting it. I'll try to post pics when I get home. It's not that hard if you have the tools but it is a pain.

Ha, I actually traded it and now I'm selling the delay pedal I traded for it. Not that it's not good, I just ran out of room and the preamp Nick is designing for me is going to take up a lot of space. So I need something smaller.
This thread is turning into the online version of a local music scene. We'll all have owned all of each others gear eventually
I was just talking to my buddy who has made and modded tons of pedals for me about how I bought and sold the Rat Tail and he said "You don't buy boutique pedals man, you call me and I'll make whatever you want!". I had to remind him that I would totally do that, if he didn't take 6 month breaks from making pedals here and there
So anyone here want a Boost DLA Tap Tempo? Let the gear incest continue.
I've got Corey's RT, swspier's volume pedal, and Balog has my RB950. Not to mention I've basically found all of toastfuzz's gear for him 
How does Bill Me Later work from the seller side of things? I'm really considering this Hondo Rickenfaker if this Bill Me later thing works out, but the seller has never done the Bill Me Later either...
The seller has nothing to do with Bill Me Later. Like I said, think of your BML account just like a credit card. The seller gets their money regardless of which credit card you use.

Seller gets their money as usual. Basically paypal pays for it and you have to pay paypal.
My current chain is Bluebeard, El Oso, Small Stone, Tuner, Volume Pedal. Where should I put the Rat Tail?!

I feel like such an important part of music history, too
Just got done with a screaming practice with my Carvin B1500. Dudes, this thing was MADE for distortion and fuzz. I've had a lot of gear over the years, but I have seriously never experienced anything like what this SS monster brings to the table in combination with my fEARful 1212/6/1.
The Drive doesn't really do much, hence the reputation for being sterile, I guess. But fvking A, this head blasts the fuzz like nothing else I've ever heard!

Mostly because having dirt pre and post phaser makes it more versatile
