How do I build a router table?

I have a DeWalt 621 plunge type router, and I want to convert it into a mounted device on a router table. I cannot find any plans online so if anyone can help me with this that would be great. My goal is to convert some of my hand power tools into desktop, or bench/standalone work tools: plunge router into a router table; my skil saw into a table saw.How do I build a router table?
Boobman has it close but Norm from the New Yankee Workshop (not shoppe) has plans for sale rockler has the same plans I think Newyankee.com is down right now here is the site http://www.rockler.com/product.cfm?page=鈥?/a>How do I build a router table?
there are router table plans all over the net...if you can get by mounting a circular saw for a table saw...just buy a cheap table saw ...less dangerous and more practical...
go on line to THE NEW YANKEE WORK SHOPPE/ TV show with NORM ABRAM he built one on the show just type in www.new yankee work shoppe .com
I've seen plans for router tables in the self help books at Lowes and Home Depot but not for making a table saw. Most saws have a safety switch that has to be depressed to turn it on; also, under a table would reduce the depth it could cut and might make it difficult to adjust the height of the blade.
