Robert,
Looks good.
Just two last things to consider with he Hitachi which I dont think came up.
First, in order for the big bits to fit through the base you'll have to cut off the tangs which hold the bushings...and after doing that you wont have anything to attach the bushings to (although I think you can get a Pat Warner base for it)
Second, make sure you are happy with using the Hitachi's built in height adjustment. If you end up not liking it you'll spend more money in the long run because you'll need to buy a lift.
Some of the more expensive 3hp routers come with a height mechanism which work great. Some of the 2.25hp do as well. I think I've read that the Hitachi's is only adequate but I have no experience with that model. Maybe someone else can comment on it.
