Default Heavy duty tomato cages

I just took 1/8" bare rod and bent it until it met and tacked it. Then ran 4
poles quarterly (3,6,9,and 12 o'clock) similar to store bought cages. I
started with 5' lengths which is a much smaller circle than you expect. I was
able to build a 7' tall cage for 34 dollars, excluding welding supply (couple
of rods?) hope this helps.
