The pulley doesn’t fit over the flanges on the wheel. I hadn’t eased the corners on my flanges enough! So I trace the inside of my pulley and cut off the glued down flange corners. I need to use a chisel to clean up the glue and pry up those cut off corners.

And the pulley fits now! I still need to trim down the outer diameter of the pulley and carve a notch in it for the v-belt.
