My neighbor across the street put this out by the curb with a sign that said "If you want it, take".. I took my two wheeler and Took it. Now what? 1 1/2" MDF sandwich between Formica. I am thinking maybe a router/glue up table, maybe a work table of some sort, just don't know. I need some suggestions.

I can always put that sign back on it "If you want it, take it"

Put it back on the curb and re-use your neighbors sign

Thanks for the pic fix!! By the fence pic it looks like you got about a $200 router table without a router. Still if not you got a steal. In a NY minute I would keep that if I had the room.

He just did not finish it and cut out for a router face plate. See here, just an example.

I like your original idea- glue up/assembly table.
