Have you tried using a loft? Sketch you cross-section on the x-y plane.
Start a new sketch on the x-z or the y-z plane and sketch the path.
Use the loft tool to select the cross-section and then the path.

It would depend on the material. Most cases there would be a kink where it
gets bent.
I would use a loft too.

week-end. On second thought, I think I'll start about noon.
