I usually use hemp rope and wrap it around the tripod.
The advantages of a tripod is that it can easily be moved and repositioned. Standard tomato cages can collapse under the weight of a big tomato plant and cages can be difficult to remove at the end of the growing season.
I'm not tomatoing this year so I don't have pictures to share of my setup.
i thik i can get a pretty good pic in my mind. Do you make circles around the tripod of varying sizes, and then they just sit however low they need to?
thanks for the idea. I know where a shitload of bamboo is, and could do this next year. I already have my stuff in cages this year.

if you do the tripod, do you wrap twine around it or something for the plants to rest on, or support them as they grow outward?
easier question, do you have a pic of what you are talking about? :)
