We do ours like like Pink -> 254 -> 968 etc...
Basically 6061 - T6 Aluminum @ 1/8th thick.
We basically start off by making the diamonds, then adding elc holes/cutouts into it. Finish the CAD, send it off to a laser guy and its all g2g from there.

We do basically the same. 6061-t6 0.125" (our t shirt cannon is .1875, but that is over kill)
In our CAD we started with the sheet, then patterned diamonds, then spaces for sprockets, gearboxes, and then holes for mounting electronics. Takes about 45 minutes on an OMAX waterjet.
They may call us geeks and nerds, but deep down under that prejudice they know they want to be the hard-core, sleep-deprived, hand drill-toting, robot builders we know we are! - vijay24 [more]
