ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus are disclosed wherein, while holding an optical fiber1by an optical fiber holder section4so as to serve a distal end1aof the optical fiber1as a free end and holding the distal end1aof the optical fiber1in contact with a grinding flat portion5bto cause the distal end1aof the optical fiber1to be flexed on the grinding flat portion5b, reciprocating movement for causing the distal end1aof the optical fiber1to slide on the grinding flat portion5bin a first sliding direction and an oppositely orientated second sliding direction is relatively implemented a plural number of times between the grinding flat portion5band the distal end1aof the optical fiber1.
