Order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{3,3,6} has octahedral and triangular tiling cells connected in a hexagonal prism vertex figure. The truncated order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{3,3,6} has truncated tetrahedra and triangular tiling cells connected in a hexagonal prism vertex figure. The cantellated order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{3,3,6} has cuboctahedron and trihexagonal tiling cells connected in a tetrahedron vertex figure. The cantitruncated order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb, t{3,3,6} has truncated cuboctahedron and trihexagonal tiling cells connected in an octahedron vertex figure. Order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb In the geometry of hyperbolic 3-space, the order-6 tetrahedral honeycomb is a paracompact regular space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb). It is called "paracompact" because
Honeycomb structure as far as we can see, is absolutely perfect in economizing labour and wax”. The first paper honeycomb structures might have been made by the Chinese 2000 years ago for ornaments, but no reference for this has been found. Paper honeycombs and the expansion production process has been invented in Halle/Saale in Germany by Hans Heilbrun in 1901 for decorative applications. First honeycomb structures from corrugated metal sheets had been proposed for bee keeping in 1890. For the same purpose, as foundation sheets to harvest more honey, a honeycomb moulding process using a paper paste glue mixture had been patented
