I too had a couple of old SB's a 14 1/2" and a 9". The nine could still hold a decent tolerance, but had feed clutch problems. I decided to sell off both of my old lathes and found a 14" Logan by Powermatic in excellent condition. It will handle all my "big" stuff and also hold very tight tolerances.
So you may want to consider a similar move.
