Wanted! pictures of your router table!
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.

Thank you this was my favorite thread so far I can't wait to build a table
want to thank everyone for taking the time to show off their tables!
I came across a couple more, Let's hope their builders don't mind me borrowing their images.
If you haven't posted yours yet, "Get Her Done!" Maybe someone will build a super table, with ideas from every table posted. That would be something to see!!

Very nice
Looking for Router Table Build How-To?
There are a number of step-by-step router table / base builds on here, but here's dustmaker's (Frank's) I found doing a quick search. (Please accept my apology, Frank!)
This thread is for a big, fancy top and cabinet base but should give you some ideas of what can be done.
Yours need not be large or on a fancy base.. but this gives some good construction techniques.
Don't tell Frank I said this but he built a mighty nice table!

Some pics of a work in progress - old hospital table, rock solid, that doubles as an assembly table and I also have a kreg plate recessed into it for assembly work. I'm waiting for my plate and will have this set-up only for raised panel cutters - large dia. The fence will stay clamped just with kreg clamps (all this comes off and we use the table for the holidays with a tablecloth for big dinners). The bosch router base stays mounted and the table folds up easily for storage.
The other set up is a high fence that slips over the existing fence on my old metal table - the table is flat and solid but no chance to use large dia bits. I only use vertical panel raisers in this table and have made many - see pic of recently completed basement fireplace.

I'm glad to hear I'm not the *only* one! Up until recently I've been trying to talk myself out of installing some Kreg Klamp track in the top of my router table (you know, multi-purpose space). After following this thread I've been trying to talk myself into installing it instead of building another router table, with it installed! I'd like to get a couple of years out of this one at least!
