I have a miter box for angles. Not large or expensive.

You can go to your local hardware store and see if the rent equipment on a short term basis. It would be impossible to get a perfect mitre without a saw.

Take a square of cardboard the same size as the board you want to miter. Draw a line from corner to corner, cut the line and you have 45 degrees. If you want to miter the corners on a table top or something, Use a larger piece of cardboard.
