What router bit did this cut?

I was pointed to Bones cab to see how he did the routing around his trackball. I was curious if anyone knew if this was a 45 degree chamfer bit that made this?

I believe you're referring to the white area that's been routed.  The answer to that should be "yes, it was done with a chamfering bit" (although I think he may have used a 30o bit for that)

They make several different angles, obviously, and it'd benefit you to use a jigsaw (or circ saw) to determine what angle you'd prefer, then buy the bit that has the angle you want to achieve.
You’re always in control of your behavior. Sometimes you just control yourself
in ways that you later wish you hadn’t
