NOW!
For the rest of you here are the promissed numbers. These are on approximate Jita pricing, except for the mineral values which were local. Note that I could do better than Jita if I was selling the salvage locally.

Notes:
- This was just to get a feel for the feasibility of generating salvage for T1 rigs in wormhole space.
- Obviously unless you have specific need for a piece of salvage not generated by Matari or Amarr ships, use the Burst and the Tormentor to blow up.
- Anything above the mining frigates is too expensive to justify blowing up without insuring fully.
- You'll need to blow up cruisers to get circuits (one of two generic types of T1 salvage).
- The profit percentage is way down - this is due to the upfront cost of the cruisers and also due to the fact that there was a loss on the Rifter since I didn't insure them to Platinum levels.

Hmm, 2 million on a stack of 10 Scythes.
It's clearly not worth doing for Jita prices, the time involved must be over 2 million's worth.
Where it might be worth doing is if it's hard to convert rocks into money. If you're mining somewhere way out in 0,0 or WH space there are a lot of asteroids but few consumers.
Have you considered doing this with Battleships? Might give a better return for time spent.
Oh I know that it's more cost efficient with battleships. The excercise was to see if it was possible, not if it was cost efficient. The whole thing being net-positive isk wise was a bonus.
Having been Let's roommate in the past, I already knew he was a nutcase... this is proof :))
Blowing shit up for science is always cool though!
