I'm planning on building a new router table, after my Crapsman router shorted out and I realized that Crapsman's idea of a "universal" router table means it will fit any other Crapsman routers, but not many others, including Bosch or Hitachi. I learned a long time ago not to buy any more Crapsman tools, but I'm still paying the price for it.
Anyway, I'm going to use MDF for most of the construction, but was wondering if anyone had any ideas on what to use for the top surface. More importantly, where can I buy it from? I was thinking of using a laminate counter top, but they're about $50 for a 4 x 8 sheet at the local Lowe's. Any advice will be appreciated, especially if there's a link attached.
Keep on cuttin'!
