mark them
cut them
turn them your desired radious
weld on ???

not a big deal
the excessive heat can warp the housing tho
and remember heat pulls, so tack them in a side to side motion before doing the finish weld

my buddy used a pipe cutter on his. he made two etch marks on the cut and uncut side then tac'd one at the desired angle. then measure the gap between the two marks so u can make the other side the same. then just put your new perches on.  it wasn't science or anything but it seems to work for him.
