I have my table legs screwed to a piece of mdf held in my workmate via a

Uncanny, that's what I did with mine ;-) (except it was ply rather than MDF)

I am thinking of enclosing it and getting a Y-piece
so I can extract from below as well as through the fence. Anyone done
this?

I have seen it done, and it can work well since a fair amount of debris
does fall under the table.
