Hello to all! I've been lurking here now for about 6 months, I've learned a lot, and I'm looking forward to continuing my smokin education with the wealth of knowledge here 
I've been smoking with a masterbuilt entry level smoker that I plumb wore out (fixed it twice) and decided to step up to a better quality tool, about 2 months ago, I bought a model 3d, and could not be more happy with my purchase. so far, i've done a brisket, several shoulders, and a bunch of ribs. I do smoke a lot of sockeye, when it's in season, and that is definitely in my plans. also, any advice on cold smoking would be much appreciated. I've been dry curing and cold smoking bacon for a year or so. It's amazing! I use an amazin products pellet maze, and it's been working very well. From the knowledge that I've been able to glean from here, it seems the smokinit is too well sealed to allow enough oxygen to keep the pellets burning, so I've made a ventilator from a computer fan. If anyone is interested I'll share my results. Any advice would likewise be appreciated.
The auber instructions are somewhat confusing to me, I remember reading somewhere on this forum that detailed instructions on the digital models would be forthcoming, but I haven't seen them yet. There are some videos on youtube that have been helpful, but my confidence level is not very high.
I am very pleased to be a member of this forum, the wealth of knowledge, and the willingness of the members to share that knowledge is an amazing resource that I've been, and will continue to utilize
