My eyepiece collection

For the last 20 years the mainstay of the collection has been TV Plossls, these replaced a set of UO Ortho I had used for 5 years. Over the years I've added crosswire eyeieces ( for guiding the Olympus OM-1's), various Barlow's and fliters.
Based on the telescopes I had (18", 13", 10" Dobbies, 12" f 5 Newt and a couple of 8" and 10" SCT along the way) found that the Nagler was a good buy. Recently added a Clave and managed to find a full set of the Meade 4000 series Super Plossls and the "ultimate" ones.... an almost complete set of Masuyama modified orthos ( Absolutely fantastic). Now have consolidated the scopes to a 12"Lx200, 6" cometseeker, Genesis and ED80.
Here's the list:

TV Plossl's 4.8, 7.4, 10.5, 15, 21, 26, 32
TV Nagler Type 1, 13mm
Ziess 6mm Monocentric
32mm Clave
12.5 Micro guide
12mm cross wire
Meade 4000 super plossls, full set
Masuyama, full set of 1 1/4", just need the 45mm!
Barlows: x2, x2.5, Klee x2.8, TV x 5 Powermate
Chinese 40mm, 45mm Orthos
