    You could probably make these cuff links with polymer clay or shrink plastic: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31xNDkpiwHL._SY300_.jpg

    I've also seen circuit board phone cases for sale, but perhaps it'll be less dangerous to use printed paper to look like a circuit board and this tutorial from epbot: http://www.epbot.com/2011/10/diy-custom-iphone-cover.html

    You could probably adapt this http://online.findgift.com/gift-ideas/polluted-drinking-glasses-pid-373576/ into something just as geeky and probably a bit more relevant with dollar store glasses, stencils, and a tutorial like this: http://www.theyummylife.com/etched_glass_tutorial

    You could also use one of the many sceen printing/T-shirt stenciling tutorials on CO+K to make a knock off of something like this: http://www.cafepress.com/mf/25064882/grounded_tshirt?CJAID=10463747&CJPID=3123248&CJSID=my-gift-ideas-for-engineers&CJURL=http://www.cafepress.com/+grounded_light_tshirt,210147229&utm_content=10463747&utm_medium=affiliate&PID=6673042&utm_campaign=none&utm_source=cj&utm_term=2047890

    Or...a bit like Syeyon's idea with using food, you could make a bento box that looks like a circuit board (rice with a single big square of green seaweed and details made in cheese)

    or maybe just a big craft kit organizer box (or DIY your own organizational system with wood or cardboard, you could even paint or decoupage all the little parts that go in each compartment) full of salvaged/scrap electronics parts (like LED's and circuit boards and soldering materials)

    Hopefully that helps....all the engineers I know, even if they do sometimes keep to themselves, are all really outgoing and many are active in K-12 outreaching programs like SWE or a robotics program created by Tau Beta Pi

    Nimita:
    Yes! exaactly those types of quotes!
    hmm...I guess another way I could have described them is as making sense in English, but also slightly not (as in, people speaking English won't normally use them...I may have made this more complicated by typing that). Other examples would be
    "Life couldn't get better (hey~)
    That's your rainbow crayon.
    There is happiness drawn over each memory."
    -Miracle (song)
    "Run, dance facing the wind and waves
    Take away troubles
    Only want to hold on to this moment, this second"
    -迷(song)


    Thanks for finding the right type! Sorry if my explaination for the type I'm looking for is confusing

    I'm making a hello kitty themed basket for my friend's birthday, and want to include a book with the little quotes that go along with the characters, and more. I never find the type of quotes I'm looking for , like:
    "If you love me, I will love you too.
    It’s RaaRaa’s theory of relativity."(from a pencil)
    "If raindrops were kisses, I could send you showers.
    If hugs were seas, I send you oceans,
    And if love was a person, I send you ME!!"(from a tote bag)

    in other words, I'm looking for 'asian' quotes)

    I always end up finding social network quotes. Can someone help by posting the Hello Kitty quotes from sanrio products or cute translations of songs?
