Looking for a hand wheel

Just got Commissioned to build a Santa Maria grill, but I’m going a redesigned route instead of the big wheel.
Looking for a 5 or 6 inch hand wheel with handle if anyone has a random spare.
No rush.
Maybe you got a big lot from the auction today that had an extra one?

Last time I was at Busy Bee (before Covid) I saw an assortment of handwheels and associated parts on the North wall...... I don't remember them as being too expensive.
 
 
Where do you live? I used to sell industrial valves, our machine shop would be throwing out valve handwheels every time we automated a valve. I might be able to point you to a valve shop that would have something. Some of the old stuff had really stylish hand wheels.

Man I never seem to get the notifications on my posts. I’ve got to pay more attention.

I’m in southern Ontario, Cambridge area. But do travel to Toronto for work unfortunately

My notifications don't work well either. I have learned to use "New Posts" and then turn off "unread"
