I didn't see anything already designed that I liked or that fit my purpose, so I designed this seed pixel matrix string spacer. I designed it in Fusion 360 to be fully parametric, so it can be customized to your needs. I uploaded the f3d file.
Go into Change Parameters and set:
StringCount, StringSpacing, WireWidth, WireThickness, and Clearance (if your dovetail is too tight)
String spacing below 17mm won't leave enough room for the zip tie holes, so you'd need to suppress them in the timeline (the last extrusion).
As a reference, 9 strings at 25 mm spacing is 228.4 mm long, so you may need to adjust to 8 to fit your bed. 5 strings at 50 mm is 253.4 mm long.
I also recreated it in OpenSCAD for those who don't have (or want) Fusion 360. It's not 100% compatible with the F360 version, because the dovetails generate differently, but the spacing works exactly the same, and you can turn the zip tie holes off easily also.
