You bending the metal the easy way or the hard way?
If you look at the end/edge of the finished ring, the easy way by bending the 1/4 inch thickness and the ring stands 2 inches tall (think pipe), or the hard way by bending the 2 inch thickness and the ring is only 1/4 inch tall (think big flat washer).
You say "perfect ring". That would suggest a large, properly aligned band saw and a piece of pipe.
Give us some details of the project and the use of the ring.
