Holy crizzap this thread is ancient.
Everything is made out of plastic except the knobs and screws n other electronics part. The chrome is chrome spray paint which is the most horrible thing in the world to work with for it rubs off easily. The white panels are also plastic.
The way it's made is using an Rapid Prototyping machine. You create your design on Solidworks or any other computer modeling program, then it prints out your product like an inkjet printer- layer by layer and can take hours or days to make a small part. Each separate part was "printed" separately. After, you get like a plastic skeleton. Next step is to spray some catalyzed primer onto it in order to cover all the rough parts because the plastic itself isn't smooth. After that, it was sanded down like a biatch and spray painted then screwed together. Hope this answers n e of ur questions.
