Correction, it was only those Tetrahedral pieces that have duals on a 9x9x9 cubic board that I have covered up to SOLL 120. I can see several whose duals have largest coordinate 9 or more of which only a few have names. The 9:5:4, 9:7:2, 10:7:3, 11:6:5, 11:7:4, 12:7:5, and 13:7:6 all have pure-hex duals - the Suntrap, Gopher, Waxworker, Zemindar, Vacillator, Driberyl, and Gatherer. The 10:1:1, 10:3:3, 12:1:1, 12:5:5, 10:7:7, 14:1:1, and 14:3:3 leapers have duals that could be considered Tetrahedral forms of the Feaster, Broadwayman, Hamster, Upsetter, Whinger, Lounger, and Hobbler. These, however, are a relatively small sample of many other such pieces, even (in the case of the latter group) up to SOLL 120. I mention this to make amends for an ungrounded boast of mine.
