Thickness of a surface and/or tolerance given by split operation?

Title says it all. I build Rubiks type puzzles and often need to control the tolerance of several faces to the range of .01mm - .03mm therefore knowing the thickness of a splits by a revolved surface can be important.

    @clayton_ertley Not sure I follow.  Surfaces by definition have no thickness.  Are you saying you need an offset (a gap) of .01mm between faces?

    You have answered my question fine. I wanted to make sure that what you just said (which I thought I knew) remained true.

    Part of my reasoning is that back in Solid-works, I would sometimes need to use Revolved Cut rather than split which would result in an actual thickness. So thanks for clearing that up.
