Are such avialable?

can a high speed router do the job?


Marble is very soft and can be sawn with a normal
wood saw, using water as a lubricant. I used this
approach when making a marble base for a Chinese
copy of a Vibroplex Morse Key.

(A friend of mine works installling marble fireplaces
and the cut-out for the fire itself is a useful
piece of scrap about a foot square)
