All I find at home depot or lowes are 1 X 3's which are .75 X 2.5" I need 2" Is there a place that sells this?

Need this for new bottom frame of a missile command its gotta be 2 inch or I'd have to rip out the inside .75 X 75 pices on all corners and cut them too..
 
Wood

Find someone with a table saw and have them rip you a piece. Or you can make a fixture and rip it down with a skil saw. I have never seen that size for sale anywhere.
 
I think what you are looking for is something to replace old 3/4" plywood, which used to be actually 3/4", but now is much smaller. If you go into the solid board section, get some 1" good quality boards. These actually measure 3/4", and should be what you need. Then as Aaron said, have someone rip it down.

Yeah the bottom is plywood, but the frame on top of it was made of solid wood 2 inch strips glued and stapled to the plywood bottom.

I got the plywood and pine 1 X 3's which I though was gonna work until I looked again inside and realized I had to have the 2 inch pieces and the 2.5 ones wouldn't work. The are .75 x 75 square dowels that are inside only 2 inches up.
