This polychoron can be obtained as the convex hull of 2 mutually dual pens of according ratio c:x = 3/7. For this polychoron all the edges of the larger pen, x, remain as long ones, while its short ones, y, come in as lacings between the 2 vertex set members. Each cell then adjoins one vertex of that smaller pen to one of the nearby triangles of the larger one.
