Kenneth here, it is more likely that, An Idiot ran the machine with a loose set screw.
thereby damaging the shaft on the head. I'd clean up the shaft as best possible with a file and emery cloth and install a sleeve with sleeve retainning compound. then machine a new flywheel to accomidate the new wheel. This repair has worked on shafts for me before. Thanks for the Video. please check out my air motor video under Mechanicalfinger. Have a nice day, Kenneth.
the inner diameter on the machine side of the handwheel is too deep for me to reach in with my dial caliper. the bore in the balance wheel is -also- "disturbingly ugly" end to end, what with having radial and *also* concentric burrs, and 'mounted up metal' in other places. the end of the machine shaft itself is in a similar state....still think it's most likely a 'portion of' a metric taper pin taper...'scarcer than hen's teeth'. setscrews have threads 'from another galaxy' on em

@hardwares1
edit: 'mounted up metal' was supposed to read "mounded-up metal"
thanks :-)

cant you just measure the inner diameter of each hole and calculate the taper accordingly - or the shaft itself?
