Hi,
I already own a Dewalt plunge router and would like to buy this table:
Porter-Cable 698 Bench Top Router Table (Amazon link below).
How do I make sure that they are compatible. Do I call DwWalt or Cable porter or someone could just tell me that they are?
Thanks!

Which Dewalt? I have the 621, and I was told by dewalt that it wasn't suitable for tables I had called them for instructions on how to get the springs out - they sent me the diagram, but had no advice. I couldn't do it, and got another router (milwaulkee - very happy with it.)
P.S. try building your own table... It's worth it, even though you won't save much.

You can do better than this. Much better.
My table is a piece of one-inch melamine from a dead computer desk, with a Rousseau router plate in it, and clamped to the top of a workmate. :-) Small shop.
Actually, it HAS saved me a lot of money, and I'm having trouble justifying building a nice dedicated router station. Not the money, justifying the project when I haven't yet run into anything that my down and dirty little router table thing can't handle. I'm sure I will, sooner or later. But for now I got a cradle to finish by end of January. Sort of a hard deadline kind of thing.
