After the workers have collected the granite, they will cut it with special cable scissors so as not to damage the performance of the granite, and then use the model to mark the size of the curling pot and the location where it needs to be cut, and then use this cutting machine to cut out the stone rings required for curling, each stone ring will weigh 27 kilograms.

Workers will use high-strength rhino suction rods to transfer the stone ring out, and then use a drill to make a small hole in the center of the stone ring, and the curling handle will be installed in this hole.

Next for the machine to replace the grinding head, he will grind one side of the stone ring into an arc, after this side is completed, the worker will then turn the stone ring over, the other side is also polished into an arc, and then use the grinding head to grind a groove at the bottom of the stone ring, and coat it with epoxy resin glue, and then put a stone piece of the same size into the groove, and then use a hydraulic punch to press the stone piece firmly, which is mainly to extend the service life of the ice, when the bottom is damaged, only need to replace the stone piece to continue to use.

Workers then sand the top and bottom of the curling on rough sandpaper to give the curling more friction. After completion, curling is about 18 kg to qualify.
