rebored
Widened the hole
Rebored is the past tense of rebore, meaning to bore again—to enlarge or restore the cylindrical interior of something by machining.
The term appears almost exclusively in automotive contexts, where worn engine cylinders are rebored to accept new, oversized pistons: The mechanic rebored the block to bring it back to spec.
