I spent two days looking at this post. It is amazing the variety of router tables in there.
I had a small idea for mine but after checking these 49 pages, the possibilities are endless.
I want to return to my country to do my own one.

Some pictures of my router table
Hello,
I just finished this cabinet for my Dewalt router.
This is a Dewalt DW625EK mounted on a Axminster lift.
The cabinet is mainly made of 18mm MDF, and for the table, there are two MDF panels each 18mm, screwed together and with a veneer laminate on top.
Thank you for sharing your opinion on this modest achievement

Thank you very much James,
In fact I work the wood mainly for myself (renovation of my house) and occasionally to other people (garden bench, wine cellar ..., I can post pictures if you want...)
But I have no external reference for judging the quality of what I do, so I turned to this forum, very rich in achievement for a maximum of opinions and to evolve
.Have a nice day

Picture of router table designed by Norm Abrams
Bousey II:dirol:
I am attaching pictures of the router table I was able to purchase recently from the estate of an older couple. The wife ordered plans from the Norm Abrams TV show and had a cabinet maker build the table and equip with commercial grade Craftsman router, and table top. It is built from high quality 3/4 inch plywood and excellent craftsmanship. Even though I did not build it, thought other members might like to see. It has an excellent dust control port, very well engineered cut off switch and rollers to move around shop.Okay members, here is your chance to brag. My son in GA, wants to see pictures of router tables to give him some ideas for his. I told him to look at mine and he don't need to see any others, but he didn't believe me.
So here are 3 of mine to get us started. Lets show him what you got.

Router table (top) coming
There sure are a lot of good looking cabinets in this thread. I wouldn't mind building any one of them. However, due to my limited space, I think the best thing for me is to make a portable top that I can place on my table saw wing and remove very easily.
I have gotten a lot of good ideas from looking at the pictures accompanying your posts.
I have a new Craftsman router with two bases on order now. Just waiting for the email to say it is ready. I had a Craftsman before (which disappeared) and I was happy with it. And the price was very good. I got $15 off for the sale price plus another $20 off for being a member of the Craftsman club. I hope it is as good as the one I used to have. The router I plan to mount on the top is a Chicago 3/4 HP from Harbor Freight. It is a tool I had to get in a pinch just based on price and it is not exactly manufactured to the highest standards. But it did serve it's purpose.
I will be back with pictures when it is finished.

Enclosed Router Table
To reduce the noise of the 3 1/4 hp Porter Cable router, I used two layers of 3/4inch plywood and two layers of counter top.
Dust collection is vented at rear bottom with smaller hose in center of the spilt fence.
Notice the two wagon wheels on bottom of the frame. The foot pedal on the left, when stepped on, will lift the entire cabinet pivoting on the two wheels. Then, a verticle wood flap will swing into place (spring loaded) to hold the foot pedal down. This action lifts up all four legs, leaving the two wheels exposed enough to freely move the cart.
When I gently kick the verticle flap with my foot, the wheel assembly raises and the cabinet is now sitting on four legs.
Two carriage bolts on the foot pads allow leveling for an uneven floor.

Sorry it took me so long to find this thread. Money and time have greatly restricted my woodworking. I bought a Sommerfeld router table, along with a Triton 3 1/4 HP router, but have not yet put it together. I will post some pics when I do.
Here is a link to the table if you're interested.....yes it is a very pricey table.
