I made a wooden mash paddle just to say I did it, but I don't think it's ever touched a mash.  I have a 24" SS spoon (keep your eye on Homebrewfinds.com - stuff like this is listed there all the time) and a 24" (I think) SS whisk, which does wonders for breaking up dough balls.

36" wooden King Kooker from Academy (gift certificate). I like the wood and the length in the 10 gal Igloo...not designed for brewing but great in my system...

Another vote for the big SS spoon. I do all grain with Asimilar setup. No need to get fancy. Your just stirring. Beware doughballs.

I use a huge stainless wire wisk from a commercial resaurant supply store.  When I'm doing really big batches, I use a homemade mixer in my cordless drill on low speed.  Really like the wisk.  I received a custom wood paddle for Christmas a few years back.  I've never used it for anything brewing.

Funny, I made a wooden mash paddle and love it. It's much stiffer than the big SS spoon I used to use which makes it easier to mix the mash.
