Making Square to Round fabrication easier

Hello fellow designers. I've got another square to round shape like the attached image on my next satellite build and I'm hoping someone has an easier method of fabrication.

Of course I could build the part in Blender and allow the 3d shape to be flattened. Or by using an old drafting method like the following link
https://sheetmetalworld.com/sheet-me...quare-to-round

But both of those are a bit time consuming, so I'm wishfully thinking that there might be a web calculator that can layout the shape like some of the truncated cone calculators I know and love so much.

Any suggestions?
