This is sufficient to support 4.8m timbers, and because the timber
supports (one either end) and the saw are all on a common base - it's
all completely level and square.

I can't see how is sufficient for 4.8m timber, it's just 3.7m long or
1.85m either side of the saw line. If lopping off say 100mm from a
4.8m length there will be 2.85m overhanging the end of the left hand
support, more than enough for it to overbalance the free end.



This is presumably partly why TMH is thinking saw to wood rather than
wood to saw.
