This is basically what I started doing with my drill. But after striking the threads a few times I got angry(er), and ended up embedding/braking a larger drill bit in the BB shell (see bottom left of pic). I pretty much gave in, when I first realised I'd damaged the BB threads, as I dont have a friendly LBS to re-chase the BB.
I like sherrits idea of using a dremel, especially as I can add it to my 'reasons I should buy a dremel list'.
No worries though, as this is now in the post :)
