Well, the 8x10 enlarger arrived from Tonopah the other day and my wife has not disowned me. (She is not speaking but I am still sleeping in the bed ).
I am getting it cleaned up and doing the things needed to get it set up but I need a lens. Now I know enough to know that along with alignment a really good lens is the way to get the best quality out of any enlarger.
This particular enlarger is no youngster, but obviously was built for the millenium. It uses a wooden lens board (and wooden negative holders) so I suspect I should be able fit about any lens that works. I am looking for any and all recommendations for a very good enlarger lens that will make me absolutely ashamed that I though my negatives were even worth enlarging in the first place.
Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

BTW, I want to thank Jim Galli for not only parting with this wonderful piece of equipment but also finding a ride for it from Tonopah to Elko.
