Rowland-

The answer for reasonable anodizing is to find a anodizer which does a good
bit of business, and leave your part there until they get another large job
of the same color.  They can then add your small part to the lot at minimal
cost.  This has worked for me in the past, with the cost turning out to be
quite reasonable.

Graham - I agree on the smart appearance; where can you get it done 
cheap? I was quoted UK pounds 60.00 for my 180mm x 265mm piece of ali 
with 6 big holes occupying the great majority of its area. I think I 
may just spray it myself if I can't do much better than that price - 
then if it gets scratched again it won't cost much to re-spray.

Rowland
