How to repair a plastic cookie cutter?

Our dog got hold of my wife's Christmas tree cookie cutter and chewed the top star.

Butane torch with a hot blower, artery forceps and fingers with few nerves.

Looks a little better?

Good attempt @Noyade 

 

Saves on buying new one.

 

Well the cookies  will be a little off shape matching current climate change damaged trees,  as food for thought.

Afternoon @Noyade 

Nice work! I think that has come up nicely! I was going to suggest hot water and long nose pliers but your way looks a lot easier and more along the lines of working. Itense operation but I am sure the cookies will live on!

Cheers!

Turns out it's a stamp - not a cutter. There is a tree cutter and then this thing puts an image on the cookie dough.

Learning every day. 😁

And I just now learnt she never tried the restored tree - Rudolph instead. 😮

Hi @Noyade 

 

Nice repair job! I believe it adds character to the tree. It would be interesting to see what the shape will turn out to be. Please make sure to post a photo if she decides to use it.
