That's my next plan (using a router to cut the hole). I just have to
decide which plan to follow;
1) to put the turntable onto the table completely, and redesign the
size and shape of the round house (cutting one whole hole).
2) put the round house on the table, and put the turntable staggering
between two tables (cutting two half-holes).
I'm leaning towards plan number two right now, but I haven't had time
to slide the round house around, and see where it fits. (Does Track
Designer 2.x have templates for Ben's table design in the library? ;-)
