periodic lattice component

Figure: T8's can still be stacked diagonally to produce a light velocity lattice. They require T1's to fill the interstices.

Figure: T8's can be strung out along horizontal rows, either rising or falling.

Figure: A horizontal row of T8's can also rise slightly more rapidly [left 9 in 2] than in the figure above.

Figure: Falling rows of T8's.

Figure: Falling rows, nearly diagonals, can arise even though the T8's are not contiguous and include other large triangles.

Figure: Two different families of diagonal stripes featuring T8's. In each case the stripes are separated in their own way.

Figure: T8's can form nearly vertical stripes, separated by optional vertical stripes of T2's (which, however, cannot be juxtaposed), and possiblt terminating a T5 lattice on its right.
