How accurate do you need? If you follow the method I outlined using
Solidworks sheet metal features you can get within .0001 (using inch
units). make your extrusion .0001 thick and wrap it 359.999 degrees with a
radius of R-.0001. I imagine you could carry out to 5 or more sigs and
still make it work, although I haven't tried this...
