Here's one way to anodize your project, in case you weren't familiar with it, Chad: look up 'Anodizing', 'Plating', or 'Metal Finishing' in the Yellow Pages and take your project to a shop that does it :-)

As an alternative, get your school library to get you a couple of the 'must-have' books listed here, then have your school's chemistry teacher quiz you on whether you have read enough before he assists you in doing this under a lab hood in the chemistry laboratory. High school students should not do anodizing except under supervision.

Good luck!
