Paracord jig made on glowforge?

I’m looking to see if anyone has made or attempted to make a jig for doing Paracord wrapping/bracelets. I see them on sale for upwards of of 50$. With the products we have access to, I’m sure someone has made something out there for it, so show me what you got, or any experience working with Paracord, I’m just getting into it but looks like a ton of fun!

The simplest cord-maker is a lucet, a 2-horned object with a central hole. Here’s a video of how it works. I realize this may too simple for the styles you want to use, but it’s a start; especially to find out the sizing/spacing of paracord with a jig. (In sewing, I’d say “account for the turn-of-cloth” for thick seams.)

This definitely puts me on the right path! I’ve seen a few since posting that were modified Lowes rulers, I’m thinking about maybe doing something with acrylic if it’s that simple but I’m gonna check out this link first.
