And how user friendly is the program? I'm modestly good with autocad (goes back a few years now to my schooling) but is it a step learning curve?
The CNC belongs to my dad, and he set it all up, so unfortunately I can’t help you out with most of those questions.

It’s not a personal sized machine, my dad’s can do 4’x4’

He does all his drawing in Fusion 360. It wasn’t all that easy to setup, but a newer machine might be easier.

He has done wood, plastic and aluminum on it.
