Dave,
That machine looks VERY nice. The message thread BryanH linked to was the one I referenced a lot when I did my first one (not to mention posting questions on the board). The best pointers I can give are, as was stated by others:
1. Take a ton of pictures. Take mutiple shots of the same thing from different angles. When you can't take a photos, make a drawing. You don't have to be a great artist (I can barely draw stick figures), but it can save you when you are reassembling something.
2. Label everything. Ziploc baggies and a notecard in each serve me well to keep things organized. I also make notes/sketches on the notecards, too.

Hello Dave,
Here's a 39 I'm currently working on. Freshly sandblasted with 30 grit.
