You can clamp (I've even used tape) a straightedge to the plywood for the jig saw base to slide against and get very straight cuts. A sanding block with coarse then finer sandpaper will allow truing up the edges of the ply to the wood frame after assembly.

A thought for next time. Thanks Tom.

Hi Ian. In the UK we have Wickes diy. If you buy ply sheets from them they cut them for you on a machine. Two cuts are free then a small charge for extra cuts. The board is easier to carry home once cut. I have some Parkside wagons which I have not built yet. If you are struggling with the build, then I certainly will. Good luck.

Yes. That was the case with the larger DIY stores over here for a while. There were large saws in the lumber department for an assistant to do the job for you. But those disappeared. Perhaps no-one used the service or perhaps people decided that it was too much of a liability to have such equipment on the shop floor.
