If you go look at the Rigid woodworking forums, there are lots of plans and ideas for exactly this.
What are the wings of the TS3650 made of? I put a router into an old rockwell tablesaw wing. It had cast iron wings with 1/2" ribs underneath. Spend a considerable about of time using a drill and a circular cutting disk to grind them about, but it ending up working out quite well, much better than expected.
I added this one to my TS3650:
I have a Ridgid TS2424 that I added a router table to a few years ago. It was intended for replacement of a steel wing but I decided to just add it outboard of the left wing. I also constructed an additional wing out of oak and melamine for the right side to give the saw symmetry. Finally, I built an outfeed table that can fold down. It's become quite the beast but nothing sags and I love having all the surface area.
I've posted jpgs in ABPW.
There is also this one...
which looks pretty good for the price.
