Im looking to motorize my Barley Crusher. Ive got a 12 steel pulley, plus a weld-on hub, that I plan to put on the mill.

Itll be run by a 1/2HP, 1750RPM motor. The pulley weighs about 8lbs. Is that to heavy for the BCs 3/8 shaft? Im thinking wear and tear on the bearings but is it an issue if Im running the mill for about 3 minutes every other week?
Looking for info from some guys who have a similar setup
Thanks,
Biz
