At least one of the first edge section and the second edge section of each nesting lamination may be configured to be engaged against at least one of the first edge section and the second edge section of an adjacent nesting lamination when the stack of laminations is assembled together. Additionally, at least one shim lamination may be disposed between each pair of adjacent nesting laminations.
