The same as if you were doing it with straight tube, but you will need to make the cuts according to where the 90 needs to point.

Also would tell you to be damn careful, because if you're not you'll end up screwing yourself out of being able to weld sections real easily.

I first figured out my flange opening width, and split the difference between the left/right 90s. Then I picked the intersection angle, and then took the flange depth, and split the difference between front/back 90's. Then welded it all together. Yes, it's very tight but not impossible to weld.
