Rare as hen’s teeth so far as I can tell.
If someone knows of one I’m all ears.

Did you check with Clausing? I was surprised at how many parts were available from them for my old Atlas 618. That was 10 years ago however.
Straightforward enough for any lathe really. And he could have condensed the two videos into a 3 minute one.
Keep an eye out for an Emco Super 11. Pretty comparable to an SM 1120 but maybe a bit nicer. They can also be had with a pretty decent milling head , if you really want to save on shop space. I know that I recent saw one for sale in Washington or Oregon for a great price.
A bit of a drive but,,,,,

There was a lot of three SM1120's come up at auction a while back out east but I don't remember seeing any out this way..

I haven’t yet but I may tomorrow.
I bought a spindle sander from a fellow who had 9” SM. I remarked that I’d buy it if he wanted to sell it.A bit of a drive but,,,,,

Messaged him last week. No way he’d sell it as it was his fathers. Can’t really blame him.
I like seeing pictures of peoples shops gives me hope something to aspire to once I realize that shops are not supposed to be storage sheds then maybe I will be able to have one also
Where was this????
This is the SB9a and CX600 in Sooke

I don't what it would take to pry the Clausing from his hands. It supposedly works but condition is questionable.

Maybe so but sometimes the madness has to stop I’ve got my Grandfathers lathe, Dads lathe & his shaper, and my lathe.
Unless the Clausing is completely clapped out I expect I'll pick it up. If I recall correctly he also has an RF45 mill which I'm also going to ask about
