I have the 5615 body grip (a great router). Your discussion of the
range of routers in your link above is really interesting. Have you
ever put together a "Pat Warner specification for a router table
router"? As you point out in your article, a router table router is
essential and I bet many people (me included) put a router in one and
never take it out. So why not design one that is for that purpose only.
