I don't have the feature, but I think it would be very time consuming.
Why not try a cheap dollar store or Michaels crafts for a jewelry chain.

Thanks Luke.
I call those tow cabel. Those are easy and quick. I do those all the time and Major_goose has a tip to use a jig for a four strand version.

I agree these are much better than OOTB or store versions. I thought you were looking for more a Loop on Loop type of chain.
