In my continuing effort to clean out several decades of making/hacking debris, I have a Variac 7.5 amp on std 19” panel with banana jacks to diode rectifiers with capacitors, panel mounted in 24” shelf box. Input 120 ACe via U ground plug panel or banana jacks. Enough capacitors for moderately smooth DC. Most recently I used it for snapping wine bottles. I would take $20 for it OBO down to free.
The bad news is that I can’t shlep it to Makerspace so it will have to be picked up in the Lakewood area of Dallas just off East Grand=Garland Road
