Before I give my 3 suggestions, I like your methods over 2♣ and would play them myself IF I had a partner who would play them with me (controls is all the rage). Having said that, here they are:
1.) 8-12 HCP, bal, no 5-card suit, two honor tenaces (AQ, KJx, Q10x)
2.) 11+ HCP, bal, 3+ controls
3.) Play 2NT as a transfer to 3♣, and so on up the line. Not sure what to do then with 3♠.
After thinking about this, what do you use 3NT for? I don't have it defined, but am thinking that it should be something like 5-5 or better in the minors, and good suits.
I use philip alder transfer prempts, 2nt- 3 club weak suit, 3 club- diamonds weak suit
3 sapdes id the solid seven card minor gampling nt, 3nt is an 8 card minor with one hole
4c/4d namuats, 4h, 4s premptive

Babalu just wanted a shoulder to cry on, is that too much to ask for?
