If it were mine, I would not attempt to bend. I would cut the tubing at 45 degrees and braze the ends together. Then clean. primer and epoxy paint the things.

I'd simply buy some long sweeping "els" and weld them to the ends of
the tubing, if I was using EMT, but I'd be much more likely to find
some old dairy tubing (stainless steel milker pipe) and a few bends
and "do it right".
