Bench Router ... how to make one ?

How do I make up a bench router . The local store has table for sale , but without the motor installed . Elsewhere I've seen plans to make the table as a project .



If I go for either of the above , what is used for the router 'engine' . Does one upturn a standard store-bought plunge router and bolt it to the underside of the table in some way ?



Anybody done this ?



Help please , I'm confused about this .
