A 15-odd-limit bihexany. This creates a scale of 1 55/52 11/10 15/13 11/9 33/26 55/39 3/2 5/3 45/26 11/6 25/13 2/1, with steps of 55/52 26/25 150/143 143/135 27/26 10/9 117/110 10/9 27/26 143/135 150/143 26/25. Since the base hexany is built around intervals of approximately 160 cents, an offset of 247 is optimal for maximising the size of the smallest steps, turning the scale from a detempered fragment of porcupine to one of nautilus, although as nautilius requires at least 14 notes to reach a proper mos scale there are still a couple of much wider gaps in it.
