What Is The Biggest Diameter Of Steel You May Cut?

Hello guys,
I'm deciding on whether to improve my 7x12 metalworker or sell it and buy South Bend.
So far was impressed by SB - some people claim up to 7" diameter of steel successfully cut on it.

I only capable to do 1/2" of steel. 1" of steel very hard to cut off, though just a regular turning doable with
0.5 mm or 0.02" (diameter) for each pass.

Anyone had a luck to turning/cut off 3" steel?

P.S. I have 30206 bearings, have not installed it yet. To install I need a tool. Which is silly...
