Thanks for all your kind words!
You've got to give more details on how that's done - the etching of lettering on there and stuff.
I laid out the design in Pro/ENGINEER (made a 3D model to make sure everything would fit), then exported the part drawings to AutoCAD and plotted the design directly to a laser cutter in the machine shop at school. The etching is done the same way, using slightly higher speed so that the laser only cuts through halfway.
If you have access to a laser cutter at school or work, it's a nice, fast, cheap way to get good looking results!
