I really liked the time I spent in the dark room using the enlarger.

Have you seen, encountered, or heard of a way to use an enlarger to
transfer negatives and slides to digital?

You could use it to focus the image into a digital camera or a flat bed
scanner.

It would take some careful adjustment to not overload the scanner or camera's
sensor and burn them out. I've never heard of it happening, but I'm sure
that if it can be done, someone who is not careful would do it.

A reasonably safe way would be to use a rear projection screen, and project
the image onto it from the enlarger and then have the camera pointed at
the screen.
