That sexy curve on the bottom, I'm in love. <3
And this is just my 2cent, If I'm in for this, I would love to get a more attractive engraving logo on the front. Don't get me wrong, I understand that the C225 means a lot to your team, but it's already on the bottom right?

I saw this on Taobao and was trying to work out payment, waited a few hours for my translator, and by that time it was already closed. It looks really fantastic and I really like the design. A pic from the side (to show the profile) would be nice!

Why 6063 Aluminum? Seems more common to use either 6061 (T6) for customs, or I think a couple have been done with 7XXX alloy?

Wonder what programming is like as well. Very little detail on the PCB.

Our team considering the price of aluminum and the cost of production, so we chose 6063 T.

Isn't 6061 harder, and better suited for milling?  Everything I've read online seems to indicate that 6063 is a softer, and thus weaker alloy (and may be more prone to damage?).  I may have misunderstood, so someone who knows more about materials please correct me.

What do you mean by heat treated?

There's a pretty common post-anodization process which seals the porous to retain the anodization and to keep the metal from feeling sticky and/or retaining dirt, staining, et al.
One method involves bringing distilled water to a boil and submerging the metal for a duration of time.

Or did I just read way too far into that and by that you just meant heating up the alu temporarily to strengthen it?

Heat Treatment      Solution heat treat at 970 F for 1 hour followed by water quench. This produces T 4 temper. Other tempers are accomplished by aging.

Looks really nice, but what is supposed to mean "Chacun a une ville de is seul camp dans son coeur"?

I'm French and the sentence doesn't make any sense. If you need help to get a nice French punchline, shoot me a PM.  :D

Ha ha, that's funny. What does it say word for word in English? Does it at least make some form of sense that you can guess what they're trying to say?

It doesn't make sense at all to me. The worst part is that "is" doesn't exist in French, so I can't even traduce it word by word in English.

Apart that word, it would be something like "Each has a city of ?? camp in is heart".  :confused:
