Hold one of the legs at the angle you want it to lean at, draw a line
from the very top point vertically down. Cut along that line, cut the
other two legs to match. Each piece now has a single flat bevel at one end.

Set the tablesaw to 30 degrees and run the leg through so that you take
a bevel cut along the vertical cut you just finished. You'll need to
run each leg through twice, once for either side. The bevel cut lines
should intersect along the middle of the board.

Lean them all together, and you should be set.

For once in my life I did as you instructed !!! This certainly is the
only way to accomplish this feat. Turned out perfect. Appreciate
your knowledge, time & effort put forth to respond.

Thanks again
