So it was Swiss threaded? I'm surprised the fixed cup wasn't marked 35XP1 S1.

At least it's out!

^^^ That's a good Idea. The Tool I made, grabs the Fixed cup all the way around. If need be, can be struck with a soft dead blow hammer too.

I have never failed to remove even the stuckest fixed cup with this method during a Bottom Bracket Rebuild...
