Circle diagram (rotated).

The simplest Hexany comprised entirely out of prime numbers. This creates a scale of 1 11/10 7/6 77/60 7/5 11/6 2/1, with steps of 11/10 35/33 11/10 12/11 55/42 12/11. Most of the individual steps fall between the cracks of the 12 tone keyboard and there is a gap of nearly a perfect fourth on one side of the scale, making this a very xenharmonic hexany that does not approximate common practice music at all.
