If you buy the Bosch 1617 EVS you can get both the plunge base and fixed base, Put the fixed base in your router table and leave it there and use the plunge base for handheld routing. The fixed base is set up to adjust the height in the table from the bottom of the router with the phenolic subbase removed and bolted to the underside of the table. A long allen wrench thru the table top will adjust the router for height,you will still have to reach under and clamp the router tight after adjustment.
When you want handheld routing, just release the lock and drop the router motor out of the table and slip it into the plunge base and you are ready to go.
