These vary in power output and design, but can be readily salvaged and studied. Frequently used for DIY projects involving welders and high voltage, they provide a '''potentially lethal''' current. Its possible to re-wind the transformers secondary coil to produce different outputs of voltage. The core of the transformer is commonly composed of many thin slices of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrical_steel transformer steel] which are shaped and then painted with insulating adhesive and stacked together to the desired height.
