Hi Slipstick, I've attached a result made in MoI, it looks like this:




It's probably best not to try to actually bend the shape using a deformation, but rather to cut the piece, rotate the end part as needed, then construct some surfaces to bridge the gap. To get a good quality bridging surface it's also probably best to construct an initially extended surface and then cut it rather than trying to build a surface just between the edges directly.

The file shows the stages of how it was constructed, I'll post some more explanation of each step in a little bit.
