Sv: Re: [sdiy] Transformer question

[Daniel Araya]

or you could just parallell the taps (considering phase of course) to get 12V, 1A.

You can just make it into a single +12V 1A power supply if you want.  
Just full wave rectifier with 2 diodes.  The centre tap is your 0V.

You'll need a largish heatsink because your regulator will be 
dissipating Voltage Drop * Current watts of heat.
