What would be the minimum setup needed for doing an inlay on limestone?
My dad in law was asking about this, and I don't see a lot of easy info
about this.
Could we use a slow router, say 6000rpm, and some type of diamond bit, and
take all day to do
Thanks all. Seems to me that perhaps it would be easier to cut rubber with
cnc than stone. I haven't found a place yet that sells it outright though.

You can also use a metal stencil affixed to the stone with rubber cement.
The stencil should last several goes before being too thin for another
round.
One other option would be to use a routing style tool to work the outline
of the lettering, then use an air needler to remove the stone face in
I work with a company who does a fair amount of stone cutting with a
waterjet with a garnet injector head. It does make a mess!
Most of what they do seems to be for signage and markers.
The raised letter signs they do are actually letters cut out and then
glued onto stone slabs.

There are quite a few videos on You-tube on CNC cutting granite slab. Basin
cut-outs are popular.

Is water a requirement?

I've carved a few test pieces in limestone (but never tried to inlay it),
from memory I used a fairly high speed
Generally stone is cut with diamond tooling and lots of water. Spindle
speeds are relatively low, between 1500 and 8000RPM depending on the tool.
A router will work for a while but the water will kill it pretty
quickly. As Ben says, the dust/mud gets everywhere so you need to
overbuild and pay
bit, then way covers and central lube is a big help
(not that I've got around to doing that on the router yet)
