Maybe it's better to find a readily available and suitable shielding can
first and more or less design the PCB around that?
Or are you aiming at a custom made one? (Which will be much more expensive
and more complicated to order of course)

When I was looking for data about shielding material I came across this
web-page:

Maybe you could use one of these, Type 445.15, Dimensions 1.988" 1.732"
0.512" :

("Upside down", without the lid) 

Maybe not exactly what you are looking for, but could be suitable I think
and it's cheap: US$ 2.16 @ 100 pcs.

73's,

Henry.
