Looking For a Solution For Power Armour Pipes and Cables

I ran into a bit of a hurdle with my conversions so I'm looking for a way to expedite the making of cabling on power armour. Are there any companies that sell flexible cabling I can use to replicate the style of cables you see on Mark 5, 6 and 7 power armour? It doesn't have to be cable either, a custom green stuff press mold or roller for ribbed piping would be good too.

I'm trying to recreate this style of cable. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think it's either / both Zinge Industries and Greenstuff World sell greenstuff rollers for cable making. I think you could get very close by rolling a cable and after letting it sit a little, flatten it into a rectangular shape vs. a round one.

 

EDIT:

Flexible Resin Cables from Zinge

Cablle Rollers from Greenstuff World

Yeah, that should work. I will try both. Thanks.

It seems Zinge Industries sells something similar. Thanks for the suggestion.

At the very least, it might be possible to use one of the wound strings to create a greenstuff mould (as greenstuff may be easier to work with).
