I'm going to put a router in my outfeed table. I have a 1618 that comes with a large allen key to use as a lift on the micro adjustment. Would this work instead of a lift or do I just want to bite the bullet on this and get a lift. I'm not a production shop and dont use my router every day in the shop. Anyone gone with this setup?

Also, if you recommend a lift which one would it be? I dont need top of the line. I need bargain.
