Runcinated tesseractic honeycomb

In four-dimensional Euclidean geometry, the runcinated tesseractic honeycomb is a uniform space-filling tessellation (or honeycomb) in Euclidean 4-space. It is constructed by a runcination of a tesseractic honeycomb creating runcinated tesseracts, and new tesseract, rectified tesseract and cuboctahedral prism facets.

The [4,3,3,4], , Coxeter group generates 31 permutations of uniform tessellations, 21 with distinct symmetry and 20 with distinct geometry. The expanded tesseractic honeycomb (also known as the stericated tesseractic honeycomb) is geometrically identical to the tesseractic honeycomb. Three of the symmetric honeycombs are shared in the [3,4,3,3] family. Two alternations (13) and (17), and the quarter tesseractic (2) are repeated in other families.

gollark: Oh, right, the active coolers, forgot about those.
gollark: I have everything wired up now, time to start it!
gollark: Now to hook up a powercell and/or hope that 30kRF/t is enough to run the magnets and turn this on.
gollark: Anyway, I got it working, by running a cable to the other side.
gollark: I'm using resonant and signalum fluxducts, because DE is evil.
