A:  I have in a pinch used a 2 x 4 with a cheap saw blade width cut 1/2" longer than the longest piece needed. Mark the coil stock on the back and using a 2 x 4 to bend it over. Also using a straight edge score the coil stock to the width you want and bend it over. It will break cleanly along the score. If you need to bend twice in close, use thinner material than 2 x 4.
