I remember that tut Rod and still have the shred pattern. This one looks more subtle and IMO looks better. Different pattern?

Yes a different pattern but a bit different technique also.
I wrote a script for just the steel text effect. :)
You just need to create a text layer and run the script.

I am still working on the shredded look for another script all together.
shredded-chiseled-steel-text.scm

You need layerfx.py for this script to run correctly.I will post everything in it's own topic under scripts and plug-ins.

I am actually looking for a script that does that exact type of beveling right now so can't wait.

Hey Z. I believe all Rod used for the bevel part was the Python based Selection Bevel script. He has it on his site http://gimpscripts.com/2011/10/selection-bevel/ and it's at the Registry as well. Great script.
