Hexahex Oddities

A hexahex oddity is a figure with binary symmetry formed by an odd number of copies of a hexahex. Here are the minimal known oddities for hexahexes. Please write if you find a smaller solution or solve an unsolved case. Mike Reid contributed improvements to some of these solutions.

For other orders of polyhexes, see Polyhex Oddities.
