Added 8 more holes to disc for more magnets.  Still 4 poles alternating 3 North, 3 South.  Tried some flux consolidating washers one the back side as well.  Some minor improvement in the output voltage, but no where near enough to light a LED.

Also tried to remove the solder mask above the coils and apply layer of solder on top of the copper to make traces thicker.  Pretty messy and inconsistent.  Not too much left to try without changes to board for better suited coils.
