Looking at the specs, why would it not be a decent lathe for our use?

That tells the story. I was going by the bed length and your earlier post that it was a SB13. My error.Seller sent me the model number
Why do you say that? The SB 13" lathe was produced in bed lengths of 4,5,6,7 and 8 foot lengths. Between centers was from 16"-64" for the various models. I have a SB 13 with a 6' bed, built in 1971, I estimated the weight at 1200 lbs. I love it for what I do.

So apparently it is not a SB13, it is a 14.5 CL 185 C
