Bogg Bros are one I can think of.

Most sheet metal fabricators could do them if you had a drawing/gasket...

Stainless steel is prob the best idea. Aluminium will expand/contract at different speeds so may cause blowing opr crack something.

Water jet cutters are well cool, a armour company I've do work for has a few

But any sheet metal fab company will be able to do it with a gasket for a pattern.

Will have to be water jetted or machined, can't really make 8mm holes in 25mm material with a laser cutter, you'll end up with a mess of a hole.
