Well, I just wanted to make a lift from available plans, but...

I ended up building a computer controlled router lift using a stepper motor for precision, with controls placed so that I wouldn't have to get under the table to adjust or tighten anything.

Makes me smile when I use it.

Before anyone asks why I bothered, please look at my blog about it here, which probably has more than you wanted to know.
