Hi Bruce

You may want to take a hard look at the Porter Cable routers,,I have about 10 of them , most use the 2 two wrench system...
the 690's and some of the other ones as well...

The 2nd URL below, is one of the PC routers I have in one or two of my router tables,they make it easy to change the bit in..you don't need to pop the router out of the table if you don't want to because they just unscrew easy from the standard base,then the router cuck is in clear view and you can use the wrenchs on it easy ...I almost always just lay it flat on the top of the router table and put on one wrench on and let it rest on the top and then use the other one to break the seal and replace the bit...screw it back in place and your set to use it...

NOTE*** If you want to see how I use the PC router in my table, just ask and I will post some snapshots ...
