You need to clamp a straight edge or a level to the board you are cutting and use it as a fernce. Just don;t forget to figure in the blade witdth when clamping it in place

how would that work on the inside when it is a small hole ?

Take your time, or clamp a straight edge to the board to act as a fence.

i think i may have to do that .. i do it for that big cuts ... would a router work ?

I'd use a jig saw and a steady hand, but I have many years experience as a carpenter. The layman's best choice is a router with a plunge bit. Then you can clamp or screw 2x4s around the perimeter at the exact desired spot + offset and just go to town!! Easy-peasy!
