Auto Settings
Most of the settings in "Specifications: Auto" are described in detail in the dialog.
Surface Roughness: The surface roughness specifies the smoothness of the surface without regard to the machining pattern. If you need a certain pattern such as a "milled" finish use Comments To Machinist. If you need a roughness approximately equal to a milled finish, 63 is often used. If you specifically want surfaces not to be machined use Comments To Machinist "Do not machine plate surfaces".
