Despite my providing the thickness to my brake shop, they still used whatever thickness they had handy. Having the shoe linings arc to fit the drums is certainly a necessity. I did mine with a face mask and a disc grinder.
It is getting harder to find shops around here that will turn drums and reline brakes. Seems the standard these days is to simply install "made in china" new drums and rotors, and new shoes and pads on commercial vehicles. Despite all the cries for recycling, nothing is rebuilt.
