I would still have just bought a new one. Would prefer to have a new flywheel ready and just do everything in one weekend, rather than having the car's guts hanging on the garage and stressing me out. If I instead bought a 2nd hand flywheel and machined it I wouldn't have saved much money.
In your case, your flywheel has low kms and its not your daily driver, might make more sense for you to get yours machined.

Can you please take a pic side on of the flywheel when you get a chance so I can visualise how to grip the flywheel in a chuck?
