RE: cheap and peppy tomato dryer?

I have used window screens suspended on cinder blocks and covered with
cheese cloth. If ants are a real problem you could sit the cinder blocks
in a tray of water.  Where are you that your tomatoes are fruiting?  My
transplants are just an inch tall!  They won't go into the garden until
end of March/start of April.  You can also dry tomatoes in the oven, if
you set it as low as possible and leave the door cracked a bit.  This
will heat up the kitchen though.  Hope this helps!
