Would a wire brush work?

Michael - The problem with the box wrench is that you can't slide it over an 
end without dropping the shaft, which is what I sought to avoid of course. 
Interesting idea, though. I think the two halfs of the die could be drilled 
and tapped with small cup screws. A machinist could probably knock it off 
fairly easily. Maybe a small clamp would serve, for as you say, it's really 
chasing and cleaning, not making new threads.
