I got my 12-coiler ready a few weeks ago,
unfortunately the time i can spare for testing is limited,
but i thought I'd start a thread for it already anyway

All coils are in attraction mode, dragging the magnet towards itself,
as repulsion punches a magnetic hole in the magnet it seems,
they all have welding rods as core
the rotor has got 13 magnets,
each coil has its own trigger-winding,
they also have two power-windings in series,
6 of them has a NPN and 6 has a PNP as in the schema,
with a zero, a -12 and a +12 rail

The second transistor on each coil is for shorting the coil when the magnet is leaving and the coil would otherwise be unused,
i have tried various trigger-sources from neighboring coils,
all with different results,
but i haven't found a proper one for them yet,
the best so far seems to be at the collector of the coil in opposite position.

(forgot to draw a resistor on the base of the shorting transistor)
