   The Lee Valley are the least expwensive and work fine. I'm sure all the others work as well as it's pretty basic technology. I also have access to a company that makes the bigger ones they use on fences. Very expensive. You might want to post a link on the others if you have it handy for other folks who don't know about them. Have them on my other PC and the company Bignell who makes the larger ones doesn't use the web.

   Thanks for the information.

   I was looking at the Lee Valley ones and a couple like them.  Also saw the Logman (or something like that ) jig and guide for using a router.  Looks to me as though the Lee Valley type makes a cleaner tenon which might be important, whereas the router jig type seems to leave a spiral  groove. The sellers say the groove makes for better gluing, but I have my doubts in as much as few glues are very good at filling gaps.
