Circle diagram.

The second simplest 15-odd-limit Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 35/32 7/6 5/4 7/4 15/8 2/1, with steps of 35/32 16/15 15/14 7/5 15/14 16/15. With a gap of nearly 600 cents on one side, this is a very lopsided hexany that does not approximate common practice music despite having many simple intervals and two perfect fifths in it, but is fertile ground for filling the gap by expanding it out to a dekany or bihexany.
