Maybe the reason I haven't seen an answer is that it's not an easy one.  If 
done efficiently, the thickness will vary, being maybe .020" at the rear 
where it tapers to a cone and is inherently stronger, up to maybe .060" at 
the points where reinforcement is needed around the attachment points in 
close proximity to the wheel... and corresponding to larger flatter 
surfaces.  I'd build the outer shell that way, and whatever seems too flimsy 
you could beef up a little more, but this is probably a reasonable recipe.
