Sand & Smooth - This is the step that comes only after you are satisfied with the cabochon's shape. The grits that you are going to use depend on the type of the wheel material. For example, if you are using a diamond wheel, you'll use the 600 or 1,200 grit.
Rough grinding means rougher excess material removal left from the trim saw or removing deeper irregularities to prepare the surface for polishing and smoothing operations. Of course, in case you went for a harder material (e.g. agate), you'll start grinding.

There are several common techniques used in lapidary work: sawing, grinding, sanding, lapping, polishing and drilling.
Lapidary work involves using a series of grinding wheels and belt sanders usually with water cycling in the system. The most important thing for a beginner lapidarist is to get a start-up equipment that will enable some sort of progression of the grits and to get a handle on.
