AC Buzz Box to Digital Amperage control.
Anybody know if this would be possible and any hints on what I would need?
To get it to DC would also be a nice project?
Any tips?

Do you have an electronics degree or a strong grasp of D/A, high current, filtering, microcontrollers, etc?
For DC, would need some big-assed diodes: 1 or two for half-wave rectification, 4 for full wave, mebbe some big-assed capacitors. The diodes are now pretty cheap. Pretty straightforward. Digital amp control?? Goodgawd.... Why??????????????? Run all this by the mavens at sci.engr.joining.welding
