I am not sure how you could fit the current 12mm axle into the QR dropouts. It is not just a matter of cuttig the length down, it is too thick (12mm) to fit in the QR dropout (10mm).
I guess I'm not following this fully. If I reduce the length of the threaded part that goes through the hub, it comes out easily and is just a threaded rod with a 12mm inner diameter, then the hub will fit perfectly between the dropout on my bike. So I just need something like the URL you posted to go inside the threaded rod and leave a 5mm hole for the skewer and the short extensions on each end that fit into the dropout slots.
I'd post a picture but I'm too new to this forum, although a couple more posts and I should be able to.
