Peasant's DIY amp (was: Re: [sdiy] I finally did some SDIY this weekend)

[The Peasant]

The variac is your friend! ;-)=

Since I "surplused" the old wife and installed the newer updated soft-gating 
model, I do most of my electronic work in the living room instead of the 
basement. :-) The new wife has gotten to the point where she doesn't even 
flinch or take any real notice anymore when there are sudden loud bangs and 
clouds of thick, black smoke!

Take care,
Doug
