I am an apprentice in Houdini, Looking for some advice to create chain on beads.

I did some research and learned Vellum and RBD objects. Still couldn't able to come up with a solution.

Any suggestions are welcome, I have attached my reference image.

Steps taken. I created twisted wires and used Vellum attach to geometry and glue. But the curves are intersecting.
I tried using poly wire before the vellum simulation. sim goes crazy and geometry is intersecting with each other.

Thanks for your inputs.

and don't follow the cult of the overcomplicators.

your simple task is ONE circle, use some grains on it, see if you can get ONE chain working.
