Nice to meet you Craig and welcome to the boards. Check out the search function and get comfortable. You'll be amazed what has already been thought of and saved. If you have the need all the guru's around here love to help. They may not know all the answers, but they know all the phone numbers to find 'em. The Guru's are those with a tag under their name saying Moderator or OTBS. You'll learn about them as you meander thru the posts. The people here are great folks, if we can't be smoking (and sharing what we did), we like to talk about smoking and share knowledge and secrets.
I read you had worn out one smoker already, but I will still make a suggestion. Keep a notebook of what you do, the when what where hows of your smokes to use in the future so you can remember what you liked and didn't and what you would like to try to make it better. Like a snipers kill book. I'll give a link to reference, you might see something you like.

Make sure and sign up for Jeff's free E-course, its basic I know but its a great refresher for an old smoker like yourself. There will be along soon the Guru greeting party and a few un-Gurus.
Lasty, you might enter into you profile please and spend a second its fun and it helps others figure out where you are coming from. Make sure and add where you hang your hat at night because when asking a question or offering an opinion, its good to know if the weather there is 75 degrees or 30 below. It affects the smoke.
Look forward to seeing your smokes, we all bring something here, and enjoy sharing and maybe even inspiring someone else.
Nice meeting you Craig.
