I recently acquired a PC 7518 router for dedicated use in my non-existent router table...thus i needed to build one. I purchased the woodpecker PRL-V2 for the lift. Table size is 28"d X 38"w.
It started with a torsion box type construction with 1/2" MDF. I then used contact cement to attached the solid surface material to the top. I was not sure that this would hold, but i am pretty happy with the result so far.
Now before you all ask why I decided to fix my router table in one location and that I am really limiting my self with long stock etc... It was about my only option because im running out of usable square footage in my shop. At this point the majority of my use for a router table is for pattern routing. small-ish parts, and it does so very well! It was also constructed so that if in the future my shop grows I can remove it from the wall and build a cabinet for it.
The piece of MDF on the top with the nobs simply retains the lift when in the upright position. I didnt really want to risk the dropping of +/-$700 worth of router and lift...
i have since built a simple fence for the table, that uses the rear T-tracks and have a few more ideas for accessories to come.
