  k, it's a bit clumsy, but you can sorta bodge this by:

  • Create circle at 5mm, create another at 10mm, 30% transparency both (so you can see each). these will be visual guides. lock.

  • create a third circle at the larger or smaller dimension, then go to Effect > 3D > Extrude & Bevel, set all axis to zero, then play with Y and Perspective, eyeballing against the two visual circles you fiorst created, with Preview set to On.

  • I suppose a 5mm grid might be better to eyeball against because the circles will unalign once you start dicking around with the Y rotationdetritus
  • sorry, my dimensions here obviously refer to the stroke thickness, if that isn't obvious.detritus
