    @Prim3StaR hey guy i know more than you! guy do some research before you open your mouth… you have no idea what your talking about! cement then bond then whitewash clear coat ice paint then build ice then playing… ice wont maitain on top on sheets of ply wood! and bolting anyone who knows anything about ice knows you dont anything in the slab due to piping 1/4 under the slab!! so u can try and shut up!

  6. Prim3StaR says:

    @burnuts007 You obviously have no idea what you’re talking about. GTFO.

  7. burnuts007 says:

    @bobby472 for sure ! just make sure u have some ice above the white wash before putting in ur logo.. u’ll have it out in 5min

  8. burnuts007 says:

    @Prim3StaR no your way off! they dont bolt wood to the slab!

    @DybboB89 Not everyone who watches How it’s Made Knows what its called which is why they have to make it “idiot proof” and this is Canada’s version. You are making yourself look stupid.

    They used 2 different rinks for this
    They do the white at a smaller rink and the logos at the bell centre

  11. Prim3StaR says:

    This is the old-fashioned way of doing it. Nowadays, they use large, seamless slabs of wood that have the markings on them. They just bolt the peices into the bare cement and frezze over it. The ice is 1/4 an inch thick.

    Im going to try this out when we install ice in aug. We just use a hose, it sucks. We have to wrap rope around it so it wont melt into the ice, or have a few people constantly moving it around. Just using the zamboni is a good idea.

  13. burnuts007 says:

    @MikeDegen8 actually the whole rink is done by the same compressors and you cant melt sections… all we do is paint the logo on thicker ice then the rest of the paint markings and shave the logo out with the machine when its not needed anymore!!

    im with u

  15. hahanikka says:

    gay ice

  16. MikeDegen8 says:

    @Grillinnap theres different compressors to cool the ice.. so they can melt one section and keep the rest frozen.. all they do is melt it remove the water paint it and re freeze it

    then ur job is fucked up

  18. crapper1 says:

    nope they shave the ice and put white paint down resurface it and thats how that works to get the lines back they shave the ice till the lines are visible again thats how they do it near me

  19. 2pacalypse25 says:

    makes me wanna go to the rink ahaha

  20. Ozyman73 says:

    Either they melt the entire rink and redo it or maybe they use the Zamboni to shave the ice down to remove the painted area. Likewise when they want to add a graphic they shave the ice down to the depth desired, paint the graphic and refill the area and level it out.

  21. Grillinnap says:

    During the first month of the season, they have the “Face-Off” signs in the neutral zone. How do they take them off? Do they have to melt the ice all over again? Same thing when they have to add “STanley Cup Playoffs” when it’s playoff time.

    cool

  23. Scott62895 says:

    me too

  24. prorobo says:

    Yes they cover with rubber mats and floor boards like any other arena. There’s plenty of videos on Youtube that show the process too. It takes about 2-3 hours for a good turnover crew.
