Thin Wall Casting

We have a customer who would like to make a 3 inch by 5 inch by 3/4 inch
eggcrate structure. The openings inside this structure are one inch in size.
The part has a peripheral wall that is 0.025 inches thick with the interior
walls having a thickness of 0.008 inches. We can make the pattern with the
Sanders Rapid ToolMaker, but we are trying to find a source that could cast
this type of structure in aluminum or titanium.
Note: The wall thickness of 0.008 inches is the real driving requirement.

Regards,
