OK, that may work better than the commercial one that has been offered (I can't remember other names I have seen it under, but a quick Google turned up "Veggie Cage".) People who have used it said the spiral didn't support the tomato plants, particularly indeterminates.

However, since the "Tormato" spirals go through the PVC, I think it would support the plants better, much like tying to a stake. I do think the loops might sag, but since they are secured through the pipe, they won't go far.....

But for the number of plants I have, I think that might get a bit pricey. I'll stick to my Florida weave.

Here is a link that might be useful: Veggie Cage

It's pretty! I don't have any experience with spirals or cages (just stakes) but it does seem a little hit or miss in terms of whether it catches enough branches to support the plant well.

Hey! that's my blog! :) Anyone else gonna take the tormato leap with me? I'm willing to share my space if you're willing to experiment and post results! I have high hopes for this one.....and this is the trial year for it. It's gotta beat the heck out of stakes and tying tho!

I would try it, but my plants are already in the ground and growing profusely.... chances are putting that post in might hurt the roots. Or would it? Maybe next year if it works out well.
