Bump forming an auger

Looking to bump form an auger flute in 180 deg sections. I have scanned the original auger for reference, it is rolled so I understand it wont be perfect match. I have attached the file that I have been working on and what I have got so far. I can get a single bend to work but cant get past that.

Why not use an Online calculator? Then if you want you can check model the Bump formed version in Fusion. Typically you cut the flat sheet/plate reasonably close to a full annulus such that you can add on a grip rectangle still. You'll need an number of these to make a full pitch.

EDIT: Failed attempt shown!
