There are unique 7 degrees of truncation for the 8-cube. Vertices of the truncation 8-cube are located as pairs on the edge of the 8-cube. Vertices of the bitruncated 8-cube are located on the square faces of the 8-cube. Vertices of the tritruncated 7-cube are located inside the cubic cells of the 8-cube. The final truncations are best expressed relative to the 8-orthoplex.
