Buy a new hub, sit down for an hour and lace your wheel, if you can't get the tensionsing right then take it to a bike shop to have the finishing touches put on it. Problem solved, little money spent, useful skill learnt.
New hub. The local bike shop can use the frame as a trueing jig.

Are they bolts or are they nuts? Are the threads partially or completely mangled if at all? Which threads are bad, the fastener (nut, bolt), the axle, or both?
