I want to add, I've been growing beans using hog/livestock panels for
several years and they work great.

Do you think the beans would actually grow up over the arch and back on the
other side? I would think, since they grow toward the sun, they would still
stay up top.  Good idea, though - same problem here.

    I plant my pole beans under a seven foot fence because that is as high 
as I can reach.  Trouble is, they become so over-crowded on top that they 
stop producing (at the top).  Judging from the length of the stems in the 
over-crowded area, a ten foot high trellis would be better.  Rather than get

on a ladder to pick the pods, I'm considering  making the trellis at a slant

or long arc.  My existing fence is composed of two 3'6" high fence sections 
so my next task will be to add another section and try to figure out how to 
erect them into an arc.
