The plugin component stringer should help you here.

The component stringer does not work for this. Please have a look at the attached picture. That is the result after using component stringer

Have you already tried this one?

I don't use it myself so I can't say if it will work for you.
And here is the related thread.

That is one possible result. Move the axis of you component to the center of the shape and align the blue axis with your path. Choose the option of no scaling, can't remember what it's called and I'm on my phone. Chose the rotation and you should get something very close to your image.

I'm using the 'follow me and rotate' plugin now. It seems to work fine for a simple shape but with a more complex shape it get's difficult.

This one LLSToolbar by Kirill2008 ?

Or this one by Albertsoft ?

This plugin works very well. I divided the my lines into 10 pieces before using the 'follow me and rotate' to make the shape more smooth. Next thing I will do is try to make a more complex shape.

This is very close to what I wanted to make. Thanks guys!
I will have a look at that 'Helix' plugin too! It looks interesting.
