Awesome - thanks for the info Pete.
I managed to find a suitable size handwheel in the scrap junk at work. Its much more solid than required so I think will go on a diet in the lathe - just to thin it a bit in general to reduce the mass without spending too much time.
Bore just needs to be opened up about 3mm to suit the grinder shaft, and think I'll modify the current solid crank handle so that it runs in a bush while I'm at it
