The 3 layer thick stator. Look around here for overlapping coils, or a 12/36 arrangement, and look at windstuffnow Ed's 18/27 "Alt from scratch". Better suited for a single-rotor, or maybe with real thick magnets, due to too much material at the top and bottom of the coils.
Also have a look at Ed's old post '3 phase vs. 3 phases' it might be called.
I have a single rotor 6/9 or 8/12 about half done. High hopes. Too busy to get more done for a while.
Just finished last years taxes(!) last night. 2 extensions, No kidding.
