Rounding Edges...

The part in the attached design should have the edges rounded by 10.5mm on both the top and bottom views. However I can't see a way to specify that I only want certain edges of the part to be rounded. The curved edges of the part should be rounded, but the three flat 'ends' of the part should not be rounded. (Both top and bottom views.)

I have included comments to the machinist which I hope explain this clearly.

I wanted to check that:
1) It is possible to round only certain edges of the part
2) My comments to the machinist are clear in what I woould like

Would something like this, assuming it is possible, effect the price of the part?

Thanks.

Yes it's possible to leave certain edges straight using comments to machinist. Your comments are clear and acceptable. See Line | Machine | Comments to Machinist for information on possible extra charges.

"To whom it may concern, I just received my initial order (test run for one prototype) of 55 pieces. The machining is excellent, the parts are absolutely perfect. They fit together exactly as I had planed and designed. The machining stayed well within the tolerances allowed, and the parts turned out just as I had hoped. I have already assembled ..."
