Through the following steps (a) and (b), the side surface of a grinding object is ground to manufacture a ground product having a smaller diameter than that of the grinding object. In the step (a), a cup type grinding stone is disposed such that the central axis is parallel offset from a state where the central axis is orthogonal to the central axis of the grinding object. In the step (b), the cup type grinding stone is axially rotated so that the cup type grinding stone grinds the side surface of the grinding object while the grinding object is axially rotated and moved in the axial direction. Thereby, the outer peripheral surface of the grinding object is finish-ground by the bottom grinding stone portion of the cup type grinding stone while the grinding object is rough-ground by the side grinding stone portion to obtain a ground product.
