Lets begin with the collet;this page should give you the information https://littlemachineshop.com/info/er_collet_sizes.php

To create a program you need some geometry and in the distant past we could do this by typing Gcode in a text file.It still works if you have the patience,but it is very slow and not hard to make a mistake.You could use the Toolpath software you have to create the code for an imported .dxf file-good luck if you do try that.Alternatively you can use one of the Vectric programs to either import the same .dxf and then produce the Gcode or you can use the geometry creation aspect to create your own.The select the tools for the operation you are carrying out,select the relevant geometry and tell the software to calculate the part in question.There may be several operations such as pockets or internal cutouts as well as an external shape.All of these can be turned into Gcode by using the post processor for your AXYZ machine.You will need to save this as a .nc file and use the Toolpath software to send it to the controller.

Do not try to run any program until you understand the following functions F4 F8 F9 and F12.Even then,run the first attempt with no tool just to stay safe.
