Each intersection of this hexagonal star is the location of a unique letter none of which is an "A". A "W" is already placed as a starter. Each line is a common English four letter word when read from at least one direction.

What solutions can you offer?

An afterthought:
Using unique letters, but with access to all vowels, what other solutions are available?

One can never expect to 'outrun' the capacity of a computer, properly programmed, to free one's brain of untoward labour!

That said, I really wonder how many hours anyone visiting here would have come up with many of the listings which come up in the preceding comments.

The solution that I offered, assuming rather few, is about halfway down Charlie's list.
