Get yourself a block/slab of paraffin and practice with that first. Any mistakes you make programming (unless rapiding in to the table) will be VERY forgiving with that material versus anything else.
Have fun! Nice little machine!

Good advice Russ, I did get some (I was given a chunk) what the guy here called "milling wax" I also put some 1/2 MDF board on the bed - just in case. Still kept my finger on the stop button. Big Grin
