Excellent! I've used cattle panels, secured in an arch shape for pole beans and other vines. I love to re-purpose things.

Thanks I’ve used cattle panels but never thought to arch them into tomato and cucumber arbors.

It's a thing of beauty once the vines have covered it. Nice shady place for a lawn chair and a break with iced tea on a hot summer day.

I like the arch idea I d got some panels to try it with. How tight an arch do you do?i guess I mean how many feet apart are the bases?

It was quite some time ago, at my old farm in MO. I'm afraid my aging mind no longer hangs on to numbers and stuff like that. If I had to hazard a guess, I'd say about four feet apart at the base.
