Router table and router combination?

[Terrier535]

Hi all, I’m looking to upgrade my routing setup and get a decent router / table for cabinetry work. Space isn’t a problem and it will be used in a workshop, so main criteria are a decent sized table and fence. I quite like the look of the Kreg PRS1045 workshop router table. I had thought about making one but a decent fence and T tracks seem to add to more than this would be.
The next question is which 1/2” router to go for. I want top adjustment but don’t know how a plunge router such as the Trend T11 or Triton TRB 001 compare with a Rutland R15 router and lift. The Triton is obviously the cheapest way to go, then the Rutland followed by the Trend (or similar).
I’m trying to buy right and buy once, so looking for an accurate and easy to use setup that I won’t have to replace. Any suggestions as to what would be the best approach would be gratefully received. Thank you.

It may be helpful if you mentioned what your budget is?

I have the AUK 2400w router with Incra offset table, Incra router lift and Incra LS positioner fence. Quality is amazing and the accuracy to dial in the fence for repeat cuts is awesome. The whole kit came from Woodworkers Workshop.

With Black Friday coming up, you should be able to get some good deals whatever you go for

Thanks for the reply - I’ll have a look at Woodworkers Workshop. Budget around £1000 -£1200.

I’m considering selling some items you may be interested in. All purchased from woodworkers workshop within the past 12 months.

Auk router table top and fence £220
Muscle chuck extension £75
JessEm rout-r premium lift with Dewalt plate £400
NVR switch £55
Dewalt 625 router £150

Total new cost is £900 but I’d take off £200 for nearly new if you were interested. It would need to be collected or else have a look at shipping costs - heavy items.

Thank you for the reply and offer. I have looked at that table top and fence before as it looks like a good option, but have decided I really need an 800mm fence.
