John, for a one off I would (and did for the demo.) do it this way which requires no special tools or expense. Of course, if it is to be repeated in the future I would make a template as shown in previous posts of mine and adopted by several others, it is also shown in Template Tom's sticky.
You didn't say what size slot you required but using you're other measurements I assumed a 1/4" slot. All the bits for holding the material were from my rubbish bin and pinned into place, the result will depend on the care you take with the measurements. I hope this solves you're dilemma.
