Working with two Torus

I have a part that is a tube, the print wants us to measure wall thickness.

What is the best way?

I started out using FreeForm, then hoped to draw the info into a torus (OD and ID) then report the difference for the wall thickness of D2 for each and divide by 2 using a result element. In simulation, Torus to Torus it works. In real life, it not works. 😁

Im guessing I could do a bunch of symmetry points for the wall thickness.

I think you can scan it as curves and then measure their distance - one is inside other is outside.

Otherwise i don't know if you can make intersection of torus and line or torus and plane to obtain circles - then intersection of line from their centers to obtain points at wall.
