17edo is very close to a circle of seventeen [[25/24]] chromatic semitones: (25/24)^17 is only 1.43131 cents sharp of an octave. This means that if you can tune seventeen 25/24's accurately (by say, tuning 5/4 up, 3/2 down and 5/4 up, taking care to minimize the error at each step), you have a shot at approximating 17edo within melodic just noticeable difference.
