Stupid Question

When referring to water blocks or even regular air cooling solutions, what does "lapping" mean? Contextually I've taken it to mean polishing the base so that its more smooth but I assume the "lapping" word also implies some certain technique to be used ...

Can someone enlighten me? 🙂

Woot!

Wasn't sure what I would find if I Googled "lapping" since its a verb used to describe other things but lo and behold it came up with something relevant right at the top: Lapping Link

Thanx to anyone that would have replied 😉

re. that link: I don't think any countertop is flat enough. You want to use a nice thick piece of float glass for your lapping surface.
