A Smooth Finish

How smooth is smooth?
A machined surface will often be covered with ripples. When I bought a flat-pack shelving unit a few months ago, I found the pine needed a lot of preparation work before I would consider applying a protective finish and then, assembling.
Last year, I bought the same product - didn't even sand it and found the oil/wax finish was very hard to apply, I barely had enough for one coat and it didn't look very good in the end.
Food for thought for many, I hope.
