I do not own a mitre saw, which seems like the best tool for cutting skinny quarter round shoe moulding at 45 degree angles. While I can manipulate the angle on my circular saw, which worked very well for my baseboard 45s, the quarter round's small size seems to make it difficult.
Is there a carpentry trick/hack that would allow me to cut quarter round with a regular circular saw? Perhaps some kind of a channel embedded in some kind of metal guide that the quarter round would go into and a flat top surface that the saw runs over.

Really too dangerous cutting small base shoe molding with a circular saw.
It is so easy to cut that you should just buy one of those cheap wooden miter boxes that you use with a fine toothed back saw.
Sometimes these even come with the saw as a kit.
