Home-made Tomato Cages

Tomato cages at Walmart are cheap. They are also flimsy. The ones I make are neither. (Of course, if I simply sat at the office for the hour that it took me to make this one, we could probably go to Walmart and buy about twenty of them.) Mine start with an old fence, full of the local terroir. They are crafted by hand and molded to fit the individual nature of each tomato plant. As a final touch, each point is personally filed by me. The result is practically a work of art.
