   oldfred,

   It's unfortunate that there was no response to your question about Rockler's Tenon Maker. Perhaps more time in the discussion area will help.

   Smokey1,

   Thanks for the "bump".

   I lost this thread and posted again in Power Tools and Machinery where I did get a couple replies.

   After finding a video demo at the Rockler site I went out and bought the advertised package deal of the tenon maker and the PC 1-3/4  hp router.   Needed the router and figured the tenon making kit would be worth trying. 

   Busted my allowance for a while.......

   Thanks again

   Maybe "branch" or "trunk" furniture would be more appropriate for your needs?  :)

   Maybe "branch" or "trunk" furniture would be more appropriate for your needs? OK so she was not skinny.. But looked like a REAL woman...

   I have a couple books about this type of furniture written by Daniel Mack.  He calls it "rustic furniture", and I guess that's a better term.   The stuff made from 1/2" - 3/4" stuff, might be called twig furniture. 

   I'm more interested in making pieces with heavier stock and incorporating mortice and tenon joints, hence the interest in the Rockler kit.
