A 13-odd-limit stellated Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 1287/1280 11/10 143/128 9/8 99/80 13/10 11/8 117/80 99/64 13/8 143/80 9/5 117/64 2/1, with steps of 1287/1280 128/117 65/64 144/143 11/10 104/99 55/52 117/110 55/52 104/99 11/10 144/143 65/64 128/117. This expands the base hexany in an interestingly lopsided way, with a series of quite melodically effective small semitones on one side and more awkward clusters of commas on the other. While it has no perfect fifths, it does have two that are only sharp by 385/384, which is close enough to provide stable rooting spots.
