That lathe should be able to handle that task with no problem. Is there anyone with lathe experience you can find? If not, PM me and we can go thru all the settings and tooling needed to slice off, face and bore your own pulleys from pulley stock, or to just bore out pre-made pulleys.
Cutting keyways, if needed, may be a little tricky but not awful. If broaches are not available you can use the lathe as a shaper.
