Any steel rule die fabricator in your area can help you out. Once you see how they are made, you should be able to produce your own if you can locate the materials. Benders and notchers for the steel rule materials will be the bigger expense. Using dense silicon foam rubber inside and around the outside works great for die strippers. We do tons of this stuff on clicker and punch presses yearly.
This will take a fairly large air cylinder. Maybe 4-6"? Don't forget to install speed controls on the valve or flow controls on the cylinder. Dual palm buttons are a must and technically should incorporate an ant-tie down circuit!
