The L-moldings I find on the market are unfortunately rounded. I have a router lying around but I don't think it can help me, or? I need to fix the molding somehow and then go over it with the router. I don't know if the distance tool can be set as tight as this small molding. I have barely used the router, so I'm not really sure how it can be useful in this case.
I can't sand or plane by hand as I need high precision and to make quite long lengths. Any tips? (There are picture rails available to buy, but they are so expensive that it's not an option)
You don't have access to a table saw? In that case, you can place it on a board or stud so that it rests over the edge of the stud/board and cut both the molding and the stud/board. Then the blade comes down from above on the painted side and shouldn't chip any splinters. It would probably be very wobbly to mill something that narrow, unfortunately.
Would you like a straight cut where you've drawn the red line? I would try using the table saw or the planer, even though it might be tricky to keep the piece in place as it moves through the planer. The table saw should work smoothly if it cuts neatly enough.

You should attach the molding to a board or something similar, e.g., with double-sided tape.
