The problem with timing belts is that they and their support systems are not as rigid as a screw. As an experiment set your indicator to the spindle and gently push and pull (a few pounds) while watching the indicator, a little deflection can make quite a difference in the roundness of a hole. What kind of tolerances are you trying to maintain?
