In this tutorial, you will learn how to make a brushed metal effect and screw head in Photoshop CS3.

This technique can definitely be extended to add rust, or scratches. You could use this effect for anything industrial or involved in construction. I actually used this tutorial to create an under construction banner in Photoshop. Here it is:
Have fun with this effect and see what you can create.
