I used a piece of used counter top from a video store that closed and dropped an insert into it. Took an extra set of 510 tubes and added them and this works great. I can also use the MKV fence with this set up and that adds covenience to the project.
I will see if I can find a picture of this mounted on my MKV.

I have been thinking about building a router table for my 520. Using two 3/4" thick pieces of MDF plus the router, and rails how heavy are they to pick up and put on the SS? How do you store it when not in use? Do you remove the router so it would not be sticking out? I have almost made up my mind to build a stand alone table. I like the looks of this Router Table
