how to bend and solder heat pipes?

https://i.redd.it/y6to71hu84o31.jpg

1) I have a pipe bender that works well with round metal tubes.

I'm not sure that is what should be used with these, especially with flat heat pipes.

What tool should I be using?

2) I also want to know how to attach one end of the heat pipe to a copper plate. Usually copper is attached to copper with flux, solder and a torch. But I don't know if the heat pipe will handle the heat and not rupture from the generated vapor inside the pipe.

How can I do this?

There's upririsngly nonexistent info regarding these on the internet.
