You can pick up at the stove shop for around two bucks a piece, some guys put a little sand under the bricks for stability.

Thanks for posting the photos. Your method of having unfired lump / charcoal with lit is a very good method for long cooks like brisket & butts. However you should put your until lump / charcoal in the bottom of your firebox and place your lit charcoal on top with out the basket. Now to be honest I am not real familiar with offset smokers with fire boxes. Above is the method I most cooks use in our Weber Bullet. Go ahead and repost your question in the forum under Cooker’s Questions & Answers and see what comes back.

Thank you for joining the GBBQ site nice to have another neighbor here. That makes four of us from Gold Bar on the site. That was sure a nice gift from your mom & wife.
If you are already mastering moist & juicy breast on your cooker you are coming along very well. I like cooking chicken breast I will even turn them at completions sometimes but keeping breast moist is the trick. If you are getting pointers from Gil you can not go wrong. Looking forward to meeting you and seeing you at a cook off soon.
