Depends on how deep a chamfer you require..

What sort of stone? and how much of a chamfer ? You can take the edge off travertine quite easily using sandpaper or better still Silicon carbide discs. A set of diamond pads work extremely well too and give a smooth finish. I rounded the edge of this travertine with the diamond pads and polished the edges up nicely.

How many do you have to do. the blocks Dave has linked to are great but not really for any great quantity.
