Well, I’ve got between 8’ 3” and 8’ 6” right now, and I can always pull the saw backwards a foot or so to make sure I clear the blade. I don’t have enough width for a 4’ wide board in this space though, so if I’m working with a full sheet I’ll need to move it to the middle of my garage for sure. But I do have a lot of 8’ long strips I work with from time to time, so it’ll be nice to have the ability to at least work with those without moving things around.

I don’t like having Home Depot cut them down for me due to accuracy concerns and waste if you allow for it, but I suppose if I’m using a hand saw in the driveway and bringing back to the table saw for a more precise cut, it’s kind of the same thing.
