That tells me, they ship it to get it done. Might ask them where they take
it.
Take it yourself. Or, ask who else can do it.
Unless you are doing this allot, the tools are expensive.

if you cannot find a vendor to do this for you in a timely manner

this link might provide a lead to a supplier of the correct type of
router bits

Thanks again for everyone's help.

FYI, I ordered a bit from Abrasive Technologies for $100 and bullnosed the
limestone myself. It worked well and took about 1 day to do 80 linear feet.
Got the limestone installed in 2 days and probably saved around $200
altogether.

Thanks again. Wouldn't have thought it could be done without your help.
