I like your masonry reinforcement for peas to climb on. I use jute cord. I drill holes in the wooden stakes and run three rows of cord. I attach the cord with small zip-ties through the holes. It might be time for a "dumpster diving trip."
I scrounged some plastic small-mesh--3/16" squares--from work before I retired. I ran out of chicken wire to protect my beans from rabbits, so a strung some cord and draped the mesh over the cord. Worked perfectly. I'll be able to re-use it next year.

Maybe I can post a picture sometime, once I learn how.
