Latest: No back torque generator.

Here is the very first prototype. Not many windings, but this is how I understand the idea.

Yes that's pretty much the idea. But I would recommend you use more magnets. If you have more try to build a bigger bar. Since they are neo's you'll probably have a hard time keeping them together. But you could force them with your bench vice leaving a part sticking out which you then wrap around with electric tape.

I'll make a try, but what is the benefits?

Edit: I have tried, but it is impossible by hand to control the forces. It takes approx 20kg to push them together. And three of them is to much to handle with control. I have several times got blood blisters on my fingers because they have snapped together. It hurts too

More force contribution thus more voltage.

More force contribution thus more voltage.

Look at the edited previous post.

EDIT2: Isn't it better to have more magnets arranged as NSNSNSNS and use several coils upon each NS? That should do the same thing but better?

Good thinking. Yes you can do that! Sorry about the misery you had to endure  . The cool thing about what you just suggested is that you can make a complete radial set but that's for later. For now just keep add as much as you like. But use electrical tape around the windings to keep the windings nicely packed together.

Edit: Oh yeah remember to hook all the windings in parallel or you end up canceling everything. The current has to go in the same direction where the conductors meet. See below.
