Plans for Atlas O and table design.

Hey all. 

I just moved into a new house with a huge basement.  I wanted to build an O-Guage set.  My layout will only be about  12x12 (Doesn't have to be square.. that's just the amount of space I'd like to take up.)  I could do a huge set as my basement is probably 1600 square feet, and is mostly empty.  But I want to start on the smaller side, but also, not just a putting an oval 4x8 piece of plywood either.  

Are there any good sites, books, PDF's anyone can recommend? I can't seem to find much online with exception of a bunch of layouts with no track labeling or list of tracks used in the layout.

I tried a few designs on RailModeler Pro, but haven't been happy with the results.  What I'm looking for are some good layout plans with the track sizes and quantities.. 

Also I need to build a table.  It sounds idiotic, but are there any basic plans to make a table?  I have a circular saw and a jigsaw.. and I'm pretty handy...  but I don't want to go out and buy a bunch of 2x4's and plywood and just start making a table.  Or is that what everyone does?  

Thanks in advance for any comments or suggestions.
