Hello,
Does anyone have any recommendations for a set of filters for an f/13 Mak?
Thanks

Are you looking for an actual set or suggestions of individual filters? This is what I’ve recommended to several ETX-125 owners and they’ve been happy with them.
The Orion Color “ Planetary ” Filter set is a good starter set for color filters
The Orion Stargazer’s Filter Set is a good starter set if you need a Light Pollution and Moon filter.

For a bit more the Deluxe Stargazer's Filter Set has most bases covered with the color filters in the planetary set, the SkyGlow, and the Moon filter upgraded to a variable polarizing filter.
