New drive for the Mini Lathe - Making Poly-V pulleys

I'm upgrading the Mini Lathes drive and electric at the moment. For the new motor I bought a pulley which I thought will fit to the old tooth belt. But it doesn't and instead the new drive runs incredible rough and rattles crazily.
For this reason I planned to change the drive to Poly-V belt and pulleys as they run naturally smoother than tooth belts.
It isn't that easy to find the Poly-V belts in this small sizes. First I preferred the smallest profile PH but this isn't available in the right size so I had to change to the next bigger PJ profile. For this I had to make two pulleys which I show in this video.

I hope you enjoy this little episode.
