The seventh step of qin making process: sanding
The sanding is to be completed with abrasive paper of different grit sizes, chosen according to the class number of the antler powder applied. Both dry and wet sanding have to be performed. For the coarse and thin bottom layer of base cement, use rough abrasive paper or coarse stones for sanding. The successive medium-fine cement layers are to be sanded with wet abrasive paper of a comparable fineness. The upper most fine base cement layer should be sanded with a finer waterproof abrasive paper. The process is to be completed until the top board of the qin is evenly flattened and smoothened. This photo shows the seventh step of qin making process which was demonstrated by Choi Chang-sau.
