I have several pcp pipes and I need tomato cages so is there a way to use them instead of buying traditional cages?

Easy PVC Tomato Trellis
I think you mean PVC pipe. You can use them as "sticks" and run chicken wire around them to support your tomatoes.

These are some available commercially. Copy and invent better!
Hi Ramona,
All you need is a few connectors with your pvc pipes and you can make cages any size you need. Click on the link below to see what someone else made and how to duplicate it. Wishing you the best.

You will need some elbows. Cut and glue.
Hi Romana ! Linda has a Very good answer. That website gives you the best instructions ! Be Blessed
That sounds like it would block too much sun. The traditional one are super thin so they don't block any
The fittings and elbows may add up in cost, but it'd be just like playing with tinkertoys... Build a cage, or a couple connected together.
