Larry my thought of buying the cheapest stuff you can find... is based on your request for first order...Don't waste your money on any good tools as you will snap a $50 end mill as fast as a $10 end mill...spend as little as you can right now...in a few weeks of playing around with the machine then buy some good stuff....in other word every one makes mistakes with a new machine and I don't care who's machine it is...I have crashed just about every machine made in the last 30 years learning a new controller...You should have seen what I did to Rolls-Royce on a 25' dia. propeller for an aircaft carrier...it was not a good day to ask for a raise...Thank God for weilding and filling...but after that day I knew the controller and what not to do...and I still worked for them a couple of years untill I was bored
