A 17-odd-limit Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 17/16 17/14 11/8 11/7 187/112 2/1, with steps of 17/16 8/7 77/68 8/7 17/16 224/187. With no familiar fifths or thirds at all, this is highly xenharmonic, but in a melodically effective way, with no intervals that are so small or large that they disrupt the scale, making it relatively easy to work with when taken on its own terms.
