Default Tomatoe stake question

In article "Ook" Ook Don't send me any freakin' spam at zootal dot com
delete the Don't send me any freakin' spam says...
Does anyone have some practical advice on what to use to stake up tomatoes?
Last year I used some 3 foot steel fencing, but my tomatoes grew an easy 6-7
feet tall. It was a mess, one of the clusters fell over lol


Just to give you ideas, here's a pic of my free standing cages used for
tomatoes grown in containers.

These cages were made entirely out of scrap wood that I had lying
around.
