    Hi @dbro0808 ,

    If it was me, I’d make the two Edges straight; it will make your life a lot easier. (Apart from the fact, that is also easier to make them straight (the Knife Tool might come in handy here), than trying to make them ‘the same distance’.)

    You’d avoid having issues like this:

    With straight Edges, you can use a Relative Offset of 1.000 and an Angle of 360°.

    But even if you decide to go with a Curve Modifier, instead of a Simple Deform, you’ll be better off with straight Edges.
