See _Cracking DES_

 (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1565925203/qid=1030639763/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/102-5391104-6813765?v=glance&s=books

for a (by now obsolete) low-cost home-brew system
for cracking DES. The available FPGA hardware has advanced
considerably since this book was written.
