Default Biscuit jointer vs dowling jig

My first thought was biscuit jointer, but they're not cheap for
something I will use very sparingly.

I am wondering if a good dowelling jig might be a better investment?



As others have said, a biscuit jointer is expensive for a one off.
Dowels are cheap and easy.

Have you considered just glue and clamping?
