ID addresses how the peice of steel came to be in the first place.

If you read anything by the ID'ers, you'll find that they don't address HOW (or WHEN or WHO). They only address the concept of "this is so complex that it must have been designed."

That's the ID theory, in a nutshell...

All theories can be put in a nutshell. Which shell is used depends on whether the person filling the shell agrees or disagrees with the theory.

Don't forget, they do a good bit of handwaving to "prove" that things are too complicated to be designed. What I have not seen, however, is a basis of comparison. I have not seen a single test for 'design' in the universe. The problem is that because they claim that the universe is designed, there's nothing 'not designed' to which they can point as a frame of reference.
