Circle diagram.

A 17-odd-limit Hexany. This creates a scale of 1 17/16 13/9 221/144 13/8 17/9 2/1, with steps of 17/16 208/153 17/16 18/17 136/117 18/17. With a massive gap on one side covering almost half the scale, this is highly xenharmonic despite 4 out of 6 steps being close in size to 12edo semitones and largely lacking in familiar chords.
