Button shanks?

Trying to crowd source something... When I'm casting resin game pieces or dice I have a variety of button molds I use so I don't waste resin if I mix a little too much. To make the shanks for the buttons I take apart lengths of chain from the hardware store and bend the individual links so they will stand up as in the photo. They end up costing about five cents each including tax and it's hard on my hands to do very many at a time, so I'm looking for something pre-made that will work the same. The have to be sturdy enough for things like cloak buttons. Any ideas?

When you die can you donate your body to pseudo-science?
