You have a great set up for what is over us right now.

Thank you young man! I've been doing a little unguided work as you've suggested, and am finding it a mildly frustrating process. The results I'm getting aren't anything I'd be willing to share.
And as you say, setting a good foundation with what the mountcan do is a good place to start. Cheers!
