Question Where to start?

Im not new to the "idea" of engraving, it would apear that in some ways it is similar to wood relief carving (which im familiar with). However from a technical aspect I have no idea where to begin... I dont have much money to work with so I know i'll have to start small at first, my question is where? What equiptment should i get to start out with, what materials should I practice on, what should I practice to begin with(scrolls, script, hobo knickels?). I've got amazing patience and i'm rediculously fired-up about engraving, so I know once I get started I'll engrave until I die.

Any suggestions and knowlege would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys!
