Sounds like you are off to a good start!
I will try to answer any more specific questions once you get going, but yes, individual battery chargers are a good thing. (Just make sure they can all turn on automatically.)

Used batteries can be trouble trying to keep balanced. You will need some sort of individual battery monitoring to weed out the bad from the good.
