An abrasive belt apparatus for machining a workpiece to produce a preselected contour and finish comprising means for positioning the workpiece along a predetermined axis during machining operations. An endless abrasive belt is disposed in a plane substantially aligned with the axis of the workpiece and driven by suitable drive means. The belt is trained about contoured contact means disposed proximate a section of the workpiece and movable along an axis substantially perpendicular to the axis of the workpiece to bring the abrasive surface of the belt into contact with the workpiece for removing stock to produce a desired contour and finish upon actuation of the belt. The direction in which the belt is driven at its location of contact with the workpiece produces a finish having marks which run substantially longitudinally of the workpiece. Means are provided for selectively rotating the workpiece during machining operations to produce a workpiece having a substantially circular outline. A method for machining a workpiece to produce a preselected contour and finish is also disclosed.
