Forgive me if this has been covered a million times already. I am pretty much clueless when it comes to building anything other than spearguns.
Anyway, what is the best material to use for the top? I would like to keep it under 200 for the cabinet and top. I was going to use mdf but is seems some people have had problems with warping. I did a little bit of research on here, and many say to laminate the bottom and sides...That's where I'm confused, do I just apply some sort of finish to the bottom and sides? I always thought lamination meant using some sort of bonding agent to join two or more layers together.
Also, I have read about support being needed to prevent cupping. I want my table to be about 30"x38". I will be using a incra PRL V2 lift with a bosch 1617. Exactly how much support is needed and what do I use for support?
The router table is the heart of my operation so I want to do this right!
Thanks John K
