Thanks but she would struggle with that as she has bad carpal tunnel so hand held doesn't help her.

Most of her rough cutting can be easily done with a good hand rip saw but she can no longer wield one with her carpal tunnel issues.

Avoid Titan - no support/spares

Scheppach are fine, similarly Record or ElectraBeckum/Metabo although they may be a bit more expensive.

Sorry, missed that.

How robust is the stand, the picture and description gives little away.

That one will be less than useless for cutting wood.
