    Ступор, помогите перевести

    Как ни старался, ничего не приходит на ум. У меня всегда были сложности с переводом заголовков, состоящих практически из одних существительных.
    Помогите пожалуйста перевести этот заголовок:

    Описание этапов производства изделий из искусственного камня.
    Send me a PM if you need me.

    Hmmmmm...I'll give it a shot.

    The Process of making artifical stone
    or
    The stages involved in the production of artifical stone

    Are we talking stone, as in concrete, gravel etc...or Gem stones?

    How to make imitation precious Gems.

    Oh I don't know...big shrug. Anyone else.....

    Literally it sounds as the description of the stages of the production of the items made of the artificial stone

    just a bit complicated. The problem is - it sounds perfectly well in Russian but translating it to English trying to maintain the laconic style of a header seems hopeless to me.

    p.s. The text is about the process of making the kitchen stone tabletop panels out of articifial stone.

    Well that's it in then:

    The Making of Tabletop Panels from Artificial Stone.

    This I would instantly understand to mean that the text will be about how to go about making these panels from artifical stone. In which case I wouldn't bother reading it Unless you wrote it of course...um...then ...I'd lie and tell ya I would.

    description of manufacturing stages of artificial stone goods production

    Not happy about the double-"of", though.

    description of manufacturing stages in artificial stone goods production
    would be my first idea, but I'm not sure if "in" is correct here.

    only a native English speaker can give you the proper translation. Lesleyp's answer is the only correct one I see.

    Steps Involved in the Manufacture of Artificial Stone Tabletops

    The Process of Manufacturing Artificial Stone Tabletops

    Since "tabletops" wasn't mentioned in the original statement, can I assume that it would be redundant to mention it? If so...

    The Manufacturing Process Using Artificial Stone

    I think that would work well enough.

    Thanks everyone though kitchen tabletops weren't mentioned in the header. It's just изделие. It could be a wall panel as well.
    Send me a PM if you need me.
