Thanks! I usually make my husband do all the cutting, crimping and pinching of wires My only approach to doubled CRW cages would be tall tposts, I found them 12 feet long at Tractor Supply. I also found an idea that kind of combines a couple of different approaches, not cages but very tall 4x4's deep in the ground every three bales of hay with the CRW above the hay bales, and am wondering if I can use that system with rows of tomatoes similarly to Florida Weave. Instead of weaving though I put the posts up so many feet apart and put the CRW up off the ground about two feet then stagger my tomatoes on both sides of the fence. They all get main support that way but of course no stem support.

I did see a web page once that doubled the CRW, however they did not say how they made it sturdy

thanks for your method! I may give it a try!
