Do any of you have any thoughts or preferences on tenon cutters for making rustic twig / log furniture?
I've no experience with these but would like to try it out but am not sure which set to get first and or if both are needed long term, as different tools for different jobs?
Choices I've been looking at are the Veritas tenon cutters at Lee Valley Tools perhaps the kit of 3 (quite expensive for me)

or the Logman Log Furniture Tenon Maker from Baileys' (more affordable but needs a router, so nearly the same as the Veritas)

Also is this the right forum for furniture making or could Arborsite benefit from a specific furniture making forum?
Thank you for any experiences or reviews.
