Seven 72-et scales

There has been a major scale eruption on tuning-math, and I think it is time to present the best of the crop here. Here are seven scales in the 72-et; each of course has various modes, and may be inverted. It should be noted that the ten-tone scale here compares very favoribly to Decimal in Miracle. All of the scales are
225/224-compatible, so to speak. each of the scales comes with three graphs, which show how the scale tones are connected in the 5, 7, and 11-limits by consonant intervals.

Har, har! I think this can be read at least three
different ways.
