Debian has a tool called 'live-build' it's used for creating the official live images and can be configured quite easily for creating custom ones.
I once used it to create a prank 'distribution' as a gift for someone who was leaving a job and which did all the things he had been railing about what we shouldn't do in our software for Linux distributions. Took me half a day to do, most of that was writing the script that it would start at boot time.

I should add:
Obviously a part of why it only took half a day was because I didn't care about having a smooth, polished experience. I could have spent a lot more time fine tuning the config.
It served its purpose, which was to get a laugh from the guy, and it was 100% functional from the physical CD which we gave him at the goodbye party, but it was a bit rough around the edges. With a few more days I could have fixed that, but there was no point, obviously.
