Circle diagram.

A 15-odd-limit dekany. This creates a scale of 1 33/32 11/10 39/32 13/10 11/8 3/2 13/8 143/80 15/8 2/1, with steps of 33/32 16/15 195/176 16/15 55/52 12/11 13/12 11/10 150/143 16/15. With three perfect fifths, which are not clustered closely together, all of which have multiple interesting thirds, this is highly accessible for the number of xenharmonic factors it has, with every step being melodically useful.
