FractalWalk:
You can get 60 degree chamfer bits, but you would be paying a lot for one cut.  Use a table saw or circular saw for that. Home Depot could probably do it for you.
FractalWalk:
Correction: I don't think they make 60 degree bits, but you can make a 60 degree cut using a 30 degree bit on the perpendicular edge.  However, I still wouldn't buy a $30 bit to use only once.
froggerman:
You could also build a jig to hold your router at a 30 degree angle from horizontal and just put a straight bit in the router. A bit of a pain in the neck though. Just be careful if you try this. Make sure the the router is held securely.
CitznFish:
can't you just take a file and file it down pretty easily?  just file and test fit?

I assume you mean cutting it on a table saw. I don't think a table saw will do 60 degrees either. So I'd probably have to stand the board on it's edge and cut it on a table saw.  That's going to be a major pain keeping it tight against the fence.
