Just curious, has anyone widened a 15x7 cookie cutter to an 8 or larger. Is it even worth the trouble? Reason I ask, I kind of have a soft spot for CC's, maybe there is a reason I haven't seen a set of wide CC's. Just not sure...
Thanks, Ron |

Brant, I paid him $1600 for the widening and the refinishing so I don't know. Race shoes really wouldn't need refinishing. I'm guessing at $200 - $300 for widening if he can do it. He would have to supply 4 Cookies to do it. |
