Most roofing suppliers or contractors have sheet metal breaks. Most
of these place will do your bends for you(10' long, upto .063")for
about a buck a piece plus $0.15 cents for additional bends on the same
pieces. If you tell them you only need 10 to fifteen pieces and its
for a homebuilt airplane, they might even bend them for free.

True, but most of the operators know nothing about aircraft tin
bending. Get them to bend up a small piece first and check the bend
radius before you give them your good spar material. Drip rail and
heating ducting don't care if they get bent a bit tight. 2024 tends
to complain.
