is a thread a few below.....it has many different methods. Dremel would be your best option for intricate work, but sandblasting is the best. For sandblasting you would want to make a template to cover the areas you don't want to etch.....you can still do intricate work, but you would cut it out of your template.

If you decide to use a dremel, the best method is to design your etching in MSPaint or something, and then print it out and tape it to the back of the surface you're etching....then all you do is color inside the lines.
