Welcome aboard Deborah. As you already know this is a hobby that requires research and careful patience which I'm sure you have an abundance of. This indeed can be a very rewarding hobby and fortunately there are multiple ways to accomplish the needed task many ways.
When I built my router table my concerns were safety kill switch, easily accessible speed control, a large stable work surface, high quality fence and above all the ability to use safety devices. The fence I have allows easy use of both feather boards and Jess Em Clear-Cut™ Stock Guides. I also use their router motor and variable speed switch which I'm not sure is available any longer.
