Rpphobby.com, Towerhobbies, or your local Hobbytown USA should have them.

They don't make any that thick(to my knowledge). Most diamond plate sheets are vacuum formed. Build the box with plain .060" and skin it with diamond plate.

Plastistruct makes the diamond plate styrene panels as does Evergreen Plastics. I think I have some in .020 that I use as a veneer, it works well.

Oops, sorry I didn't realize you wanted it that thick. I don't know if they even make it that thick. You may want to just try gluing the regular diamond plate sheets to .060 styrene.
