Is a plunge router a must or can you get away with a regular router?

Number 2 suggestion is to get a router with a dust collection port. Routing MDF makes a cloud of fine dust that coats everything nearby - a real cleanup headache. Unfortunately, there arent' very many routers with dust collection built in, so your choice is limited.
To add to Hank's post, MDF dust also coats you sinus cavities! I had a sinus infection for over two months thanks to MDF dust. I've since learned that a dust mask is a minimum requirement and have also bought the DeWalt router with dust collection.
