FYI, after my comments counseling against it above, I flipped an axle round in a bike I put together over the weekend. It isn't too bad. I used an axle from a double so the left crank sticks out about 5mm more than it ought, but it doesn't make much difference to the ride, and if anything is kind of handy as it means I can adjust the BB cup without removing the crank. Using the shorter end for the right crank gives me an almost perfect chainline too.
