LS,
I'm new to the CNC world and watched many youtube clips about cnc machines and software to use before buy anything. That said. My choice is the SC M1000 with UCCNC and the Vcarve Pro design software. My idea is to buy a touchscreen with a nuc pc with the UNCNC software (workshop) and the Vcarve can go on my home computer. I don't know if a touchscreen is a good idea for responce to the cnc in case of emergency. (i see videoclips with software on a phone to control the cnc during setup and that seems to work instantly) Also to transfer VcarvePro files to the UCCNC on a usb back and forth is convenient. The other option is to take a laptop with Windows to install both programs and take that from home to my workshop. To start with this will be a hobby and a expansion with other woodworking. I will appreciate suggestions for best practice on this one.

For a hobby setup, I think your plan with the M1000, UCCNC on the workshop PC and VCarve Pro on the home computer makes sense. I'd personally go with a small dedicated PC at the machine rather than moving a laptop back and forth all the time.
A touchscreen can be handy for UCCNC, especially when you're standing next to the machine, but I wouldn't rely on it as the only emergency control. I'd make sure the machine has a proper physical emergency-stop within easy reach. For jogging and setup, a touchscreen or pendant can be very convenient.
For transferring VCarve files, USB is perfectly workable. Once you start making more projects, though, a shared network folder can save a lot of plugging and unplugging. I'd also keep the original VCarve files separately from the generated G-code so you can easily make changes later.
Since you're starting as a hobbyist, I'd keep the setup simple initially and add a pendant or other controls only after you've used the machine for a while.
