Let me show you how you can use this little tool for making rope coils for you model ships. It's super easy to make, but you'll need a milling machine. I use this one https://amzn.to/3ALiaNd and it's one of the first machines i bought for my workshop.
Alternatively you can have to this cheaper solution:

Once you mastered this though, I believe it is a great tool for making coiled ropes.
