I would keep it as a 3 phase generator. Three phase power is better
for many applications, and machines with 3 phase moters are usually
cheaper than single phase machines. Most home shops can not use 3
phase machines. Used three phase motors are cheap so you can replace
the single phase motors with three phase motors if you need to.
