Your **** out of luck then.
Just rotofix it and just wrap a bandana around the BB shell to prevent scratching.

There is definitely enough room in your apartment to wrap a bandana, towel, old t-shirt, etc. around your bb and rotofix that cog off.

You wont man...just be gentle with her and use a lot of protection.

Out of curiosity, about what kind of frame are we talking?

I let hyperRevue do it to my virgin frame and it didn't hurt (it) a bit. Don't be afraid to use a little muscle. Or buy a chain whip, OR take it to a shop.
